The composer is depicted with his characteristic full beard and mustache, wearing a coat with a bow tie at the collar. The legend REPUBBLICA ITALIANA curves along the left and upper periphery of the field, while the engraver's signature E.L. FRAPICCINI appears in small incuse lettering to the lower right of the portrait.
