The image shows a full-body depiction of a standing figure. The person is positioned facing forward with their head slightly tilted and both hands held in front of their chest. The facial features are defined with a prominent beard and long, wavy hair that reaches past the shoulders. The individual is wearing a long robe that drapes down to the feet, which are bare. The robe has intricate patterns and details on it. In one hand, the person holds an orb topped with a small cross, while the other hand is raised in a gesture. The background is decorated with detailed, floral or vine-like patterns and contains text in a Gothic style script along the borders.
