In the middle of the composition, the bust of Rossini sits on a round column. Music is seated on the pedestal at the foot of this column and she holds a trumpet in her left hand. On the right, Glory, is a flying figure. She is dressed and carries a palm. On the left, the Graces are naked. Two in the foreground stand and hold a garland. Behind them, the third one, with a foot on the base, rises to put a crown on the composer's head.
