Decorative foliate and floral ornaments, including rosettes and scrolling vine motifs, frame the inscriptions above and to the sides, lending the composition a characteristic Baroque aesthetic. The lettering is rendered in Roman capitals of varying size, with the numeral 'I' at the apex. A beaded inner border encircles the design. |
