Relief of a male head in profile, the figure wears a chlamys pinned with a circular brooch on his proper right shoulder. He has short cropped hair and a curly beard, his strong face holds a serious expression, whilst he lifts his right hand to the opposite shoulder. Recomposed from two pieces, the nose restored. The reverse is flat and perhaps polished in more recent times.
