The image shows an elderly man standing with a contemplative expression. He has a long, flowing beard and short hair, partially bald. He wears long robes down to his feet, where his toes are visible. He holds an open book in his left hand and a staff with a distinctive pointed top in his right hand. A halo surrounds his head. The background is simple with stylized foliage at the bottom corners. Above his left shoulder are initials and the date "1519."
