Two rows of lambrequins and a pleated sleeve are visible at the Army sets. On the Lambrequins are engraved Fleurs-de-Lys. On the right shoulder, the drapery, which acts as a mask of the breast cut, is held with a rosette -shaped button. The back of the bust is open, with the exception of the back of the head. The whole shows a high degree of finish and Detailing, which demonstrates that the bronze is very carefully modeled and citled after casting.
