The image shows the upper half of a man's body in a formal portrait style. The man has a serious expression, long, narrow nose, defined lips, and shoulder-length wavy hair. He wears a robe with broad sleeves, intricate patterns, and a wide, white collar with pointed corners. A detailed emblem is below the oval frame surrounding the portrait. The background has finely engraved horizontal lines.
