The image shows a 5x3 grid of oval portraits, each depicting a bust view of a person in profile. The individuals have varied hairstyles and are dressed in period military or formal attire. The woman in the last portrait on the bottom row wears a bonnet and a dress. Each portrait has the person's name written below in script with titles like "Capit." or "Dr.". The portraits are set against a plain background within a sepia-toned mount with lined engraving.
