The large, flat surface has an upwardly curving, wavy rim, decorated with lattice and bunches of flowers. The surface shows the Pest entry of the Chain Bridge, in a rounded, rectangular frame. In the background the Castle of Buda appears. It was probably made after a contemporary copper cut. There is an inscription below A 'Buda és Pest közti álló híd' képe (The picture of the standing bridge between Buda and Pest).
