The image shows a man in a portrait from the chest up, seated in an oval frame. He is facing slightly to his right with his gaze toward the viewer. The man has a pointed mustache, shadowed face, long wavy hair, and is wearing a cap. He is dressed in 17th-century-style attire with a textured coat, lace collar, and visible inner garment. The background has horizontal lines within and around the oval frame. The frame is set on a rectangular pedestal with engraved text.
