The sculpture is a round medallion featuring several people in classical attire. In the center there are three standing people, potentially women, who have elaborate hairstyles and wear flowing gowns. They surround a reclining person on the ground who has their head propped up on their arm and their back towards the women. This person appears to wear intricate armor with a cloth draped across their torso. On the left is a plant or floral motif and something that may be a barrel. To each side of the medallion are small holes on either side for mounting or display, and it is made of a gold-colored material.
