The image displays an elderly man standing in a full-body frontal position, with his head slightly turned to the side. The man has a long, full beard and stern expression, along with long hair. He wears a draped garment with voluminous sleeves, and one barefoot is visible. In his left hand, he holds a staff with a small crucifix. A round halo surrounds his head. A lion lies behind him on the ground amidst grass and small plants. The background features hilly terrain without distinct details. Inscriptions in the lower left corner read "1529" alongside a monogram.
