Steps lead up to his throne, the back of which forms a kind of halo above his head.Gold paint is used to detail Napoleon's costume, and to create brilliance of the throne, the cushion under Napoleon's legs, and some other elements.
The portrait is framed with a gold line; the box's sides are decorated with two parallel gold lines.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. A hinge is fastened to the left of the portrait, and the box rests on four legs. The work is signed with the artist's name.
