The image depicts an engraving on a rectangular metal surface of a person's profile facing left. The engraving shows the person from the chest up, with minimal facial features and emphasis on the nose and forehead. The person's hair is styled intricately. The clothing is simple with no distinct features. The background includes a dome and columns, suggesting importance. The metal object has a decorative border and a loop at the bottom with a cord threaded through it, set against a black background.
