An allegorical engraving within a rectangular frame. At the center is a portrait bust of a Roman figure (likely Ammianus Marcellinus) set within a circular wreath. Flanking the bust are two putti or cherubs; the one on the left holds a helmet and military standards, while the one on the right sits near a shield and other armaments, symbolizing the military history described in the text.
