The image shows a bronze medallion with a reclining, nude male figure. The man is leaning against a wooden structure with his right arm resting atop it. The sculpture is in bronze, giving it a reddish-brown color typical of oxidized bronze finishes. The man appears relaxed, holding an object in his left hand. Above him, there is a celestial object, possibly a shooting star or comet, with a trailing tail. An inscription in Latin, "HOC FVGIENTI FORTVNAE DICATVS," encircles the medallion.
