The image shows a full-body illustration of a figure standing. The person faces forward with a serene expression, featuring an elongated face with small, closed lips and downcast eyes, wavy shoulder-length hair, wearing a long, brown and red patterned robe and cloak, with a halo around the head. They hold a wooden staff and a book, with a rosary draped over the hand holding the book. The background has lush green floral designs with white and yellow flowers, framed within a rectangular border, and the name "SANT JACOB" inscribed at the top.
