A vertically oriented color lithograph depicts a bust portrait of Napoleon, a man with light skin tone and dark hair swept across his forehead. Angled to our left, he looks down toward our right with blue eyes and lips pressed together. He wears a white uniform with gold buttons and red trim under a heavy gray overcoat. A gold star medal is pinned to our right. NAPOLEON is printed in block letters below.
