Half-length portrait of Diana in profile. The classically proportioned face is framed by long hair leading to the nape of the neck, from which a few curls are released at the cheek and neck. The back of the head was completed by Girometti with a hairstyle based on the classicist model. The bust is surrounded by a robe which leaves a breast free, over which a ribbon leads, so that the addition of the quiver in the back seems possible. In front the end of a bow with a griffin's head. The transition from the robe-covered shoulder to the bow is curious. The gem is set as a medallion in gold and largely completed in gold.
