He sits on a wooden chair with a curved back. The desk is wooden and has a small compartment on the front. An eagle with a halo perches on top of the desk, holding a scroll in its beak that reads "iohannes". The background includes a blue sky with white clouds, a gray stone wall, and green foliage. The floor is made of small, multicolored tiles. The image is framed by a gold border with a decorative blue and red stitch pattern on a beige background.
