The artwork shows a colorful figure wearing a green and red garment, holding a sword aloft with one hand and gesturing outward with the other.

Below the figures is an inscribed base reading "SAN. MIGUEL." The style of the painting is traditional folk art with vivid colors and strong outlines, reminiscent of religious iconography.
