This is a medium shot, eye-level, outdoor photograph of a bronze bust of Richard Holtze mounted on a red granite plaque, which is affixed to a red brick wall. The plaque is inscribed with text in Polish. Above the plaque, the bust depicts a man with a beard, wearing a suit jacket and a tie. His head is slightly tilted to his left, and he appears to be looking forward. The granite plaque is rectangular with a beveled top edge. The inscription on the plaque reads: "RICHARD HOLTZE 1824-1891 WSPÓŁZAŁOŻYCIEL MIASTA KATOWICE PIERWSZY PRZEWODNICZĄCY RADY MIEJSKIEJ W LATACH 1866-1891 MIASTO KATOWICE 2007 ROK W 140 ROCZNICĘ UZYSKANIA PRAW MIEJSKICH". This translates to: "RICHARD HOLTZE 1824-1891 CO-FOUNDER OF THE CITY OF KATOWICE FIRST CHAIRMAN OF THE CITY COUNCIL IN THE YEARS 1866-1891 THE CITY OF KATOWICE 2007 YEAR ON THE 140TH ANNIVERSARY OF OBTAINING CITY RIGHTS". To the right of the plaque and bust, a portion of a modern building with a dark-framed window featuring vertical white and black blinds is visible. The building's facade is constructed of the same red brick as the wall on which the plaque is mounted. The photograph was taken in Katowice, Poland, at the building located at ul. Mariacka 47, which commemorates Richard Holtze, a key figure in the city's development, particularly as its first mayor.
