The image displays a rectangular bronze commemorative plaque affixed to a dark, polished stone surface, characteristic of a war memorial. The plaque is primarily dedicated to the "SNCF" (French National Railway Company) and its employees who died during "GUERRE 1939 — 1945" (World War II). The main title on the plaque reads "LA SNCF À SES MORTS" (The SNCF to its Dead). Below this, names are listed in columns under various categories, including "MORTS AU SERVICE" (Killed in Service), "MORTS AU CAMP D'HONNEUR OU DE CONCENTRATION" (Killed in Camp of Honor or Concentration), "FUSILLÉS" (Executed by Firing Squad), and "TUÉS" (Killed). Visible names include Sondey, Saghet, Goode, Rent, Torney, Saillard, Brunnier, Larel, Rousillon, Meubat, Reybaud, Roux, Mariat, Vang, Bertholdi, Jimeland, Jouve, and Pellet. A concluding inscription at the bottom states: "LE PERSONNEL DE LA SNCF EN HOMMAGE À SES GLORIEUX MORTS" (The SNCF Personnel in Homage to its Glorious Dead). To the right of the plaque, a metallic fern-like embellishment is present on the dark stone. The dates "1914" and "1918" are partially visible carved into the stone, indicating the broader memorial's scope includes World War I. The overall scene evokes a sense of solemn remembrance for those who perished, located in Grenoble, France.
