The image is an engraving depicting the upper body of a man in a portrait frame. The man is positioned facing slightly to his right with his gaze directed towards the viewer. He has a high forehead and receding hairline, with short hair on the sides and a neatly trimmed beard and mustache. His facial features convey a mature appearance, with a furrowed brow above small, intelligent eyes and a slightly pursed mouth. He is dressed in a traditional 17th-century garment, featuring a large collar and a series of buttons running down the front. The background is detailed with foliage designs along the frame, which includes textual elements stating "Pierre Charron" and other information. The image borders are filled with text in French.
