The larger print is a sepia-toned stipple engraving depiction of a young woman with curly hair holding a dove. The print features the printed inscription Edwin Roffe, sculp. along the upper right margin and R. Cosway, R.A. delt along the lower right margin. It is housed in a rectangular stained wood frame with a gilt inner liner, cream-colored matting, and a cardboard backing featuring the handwritten pencil inscription McKee 81 G1105.

Both are housed in ornate gilt-finished oval composite frames with deep red velvet mats and convex glass covers. The reverse of one oval frame bears paper labels reading A Cameo Creation and Portrait of a Lady by Moritz Michael Daffinger. The reverse of the second oval frame bears paper labels reading A Cameo Creation and Comtesse Louisa Cerclé by F. X. Winterhalter.
