A round, white, marble sculpture portrays a man, whose chest emerges in low relief, but whose head projects outward and upward from the medallion into space with great depth. He has full features, wavy hair, and a wide gaze, and wears a simple tunic. Above his left shoulder in the center of the otherwise empty space is a small scroll with rolled ends in relief. There is a raised marble border encircling the rim of the medallion.
