The oval low mound base has a scroll at the back and a larger scroll and rocaille ornament at the front. On the left there is a five-sided pedestal with a helmet, a book, a pistol, and an open book of music at its foot. Europe, shown as a chubby white girl, is seated on the pedestal with her right leg back and left leg forward. She has greyish hair, and wears small gold crown, a pale yellow drape with red floral sprays and a purplish-pink lining, and holds a small orb in her extended left hand. America, shown as an androgynous native American child, with black hair and brown skin, sits astride a pale brown alligator facing away from the viewer, and leans back so as to look up at Europa.

The top and edges of the base are decorated with orange, dark pink, and yellow, applied flowers and leaves. The pedestal and helmet are outlined and picked out in gold.
