The plaque is made of a light-colored material and has black text written in Chinese characters. The text is written in a traditional font and is centered on the plaque. Below the text, there is a list of rigid standards for casting and engraving, which were imposed on official started in the ming and Qing with little attention paid to artists. The standards are written in both English and Chinese. The plaque appears to be in a museum or exhibition space, as there are other artifacts visible in the background.
