The image shows a bust-length portrait of a man. He has medium-length wavy hair, a mustache, and a pointed beard. He wears a formal garment with a wide collar over a cloak. There is a star-shaped insignia on a chain at his chest. The man is enclosed within an intricately detailed oval frame with decorative ribbons and floral motifs. The background has a lined texture. Below the portrait, there is a coat of arms embedded into the architectural structure.
