The image displays two figures. One is fully visible and the other partially shown. The figure on the left is in a bowing position with a side profile visible, dressed in a long garment with "PRUSSE" written on it. This figure has a prominent nose, a pointed helmet, and a slightly hunched appearance. The figure on the right is fully visible, seated on steps, wearing a long dress with "1867" written on it. This seated figure has an updo hairstyle, classic facial features, and is extending its right arm to place a laurel wreath on the head of the bowing figure. Both figures are in a formal setting, with indistinct figures in the background.
