The sculpture is a circular medal featuring a central embossed design of an infant, resembling a cherub or cupid figure. The infant is seated, facing forward, with one arm raised holding a snake, and the other arm holding a cluster of ears of wheat. The infant is surrounded by foliage and positioned above an animal skin. The sculpture has a bronze color, indicating it is likely made of bronze or a similar metal alloy. The outer edge is inscribed with "ART UNION OF LONDON" and at the bottom marked with "1845." The sculpture is slightly raised from the surface of the medal.
