The image is a three-quarters view of a man's upper body in an oval frame. The man is facing slightly to his left but gazes directly at the viewer. He has a prominent nose, full lips, and a well-defined chin with a closely trimmed goatee. His eyebrows are arched and his expression is serious. His hair is curly and reaches just above his ears, and he wears a dark skullcap on his head. The man is dressed in traditional attire with a dark robe featuring an ornate button panel and wide, white collar. There are no visible objects or jewelry. The background of the oval frame contains text in Latin. Around the oval, there is a heavy border with decorative text. Below the image, there is additional neatly inscribed text. The overall aesthetic suggests a formal, historical portrait engraving.
