The central figure, identified as Constantine I in military attire, stands facing left holding a laurel branch in his raised right hand and a long sceptre or spear in his left; he extends his right hand toward a kneeling captive or suppliant figure at his feet. To the left stands a helmeted soldier or military genius, and to the right stands a female personification, likely Victory or Pietas, holding a long sceptre or standard. The scene collectively illustrates the emperor's pietas in a triumphal context. The encircling Latin legend reads PIETAS AVGVSTI NOSTRI.
