An upright reddish-brown stone monument, irregular in shape, stands on a grassy lawn under an overcast sky. A metallic bas-relief bust of a man with glasses, facing left in profile, is affixed to the upper portion. Below the bust, metallic lettering identifies the individual as "DOCTEUR ERNEST SCHAEFFER" with dates "1911-1966," and lists his titles including "DEPUTE-MAIRE DE LENS," "CONSEILLER GENERAL," "PRESIDENT DE LA COMMISSION ADMINISTRATIVE DU CENTRE HOSPITALIER," "COMMANDEUR DE L'ORDRE DE LA SANTE PUBLIQUE," "OFFICIER DE LA LEGION D'HONNEUR," and "CITE A L'ORDRE DE LA NATION." A metallic crest surmounted by a crown is positioned near the bottom of the inscribed text. The monument is situated on the grounds of a hospital in Lens, France, likely the Centre Hospitalier. In the background, to the left, is a modern low-rise building with large windows. To the right, a taller, older white building is partially visible behind deciduous trees with sparse foliage. Several dark-colored cars are parked in the middle ground between the monument and the right-side building. The ground is covered in green grass with scattered brown leaves. No people are visible in the scene.
