The image depicts a man with a long grey beard wearing a green robe over a red robe and a gold halo sitting on a chair and writing in an open book. A child stands beside him, holding a long white scroll and an inkwell. The man sits at a wooden desk in an outdoor scene with a tiled floor, a stone wall behind which are green trees against a blue cloudy sky; on the wall to the right is a wooden cabinet with books on shelves and a green curtain. The image is framed in gold with blue and red decorative borders.
