This soldier, probably in a Atlas-like position, wears a turban tied at the side and passed as a chinstrap under his chin. The warrior's young, good-natured face is idealised and smiling. With his left hand, he is gripping the hilt of his sword, which is already emerging from a scabbard set with an elaborate circular medallion.
