The image shows an engraving featuring two circular motifs. On the left is a portrait of Francis Bacon, wearing a hat and elaborate clothing from his time. His facial features include a mustache and beard, with wavy hair showing from under his hat. Above the portrait is the name "Franciscus Bacon." The right circle shows the sun emitting rays over a landscape, with the inscription "Exortus vi aetherus sol" around it. Above the circles is a female bust draped with fabric. Below the circles are two books, an armillary sphere, and botanical elements. The background is plain, set on a beige textured surface.
