The image is an engraved portrait of a historical figure showing the upper half of their body. The person is seated and positioned with their body facing slightly to the right, while their gaze is directed forward. They have long, wavy hair and a full beard and mustache framing their face. They wear a crown adorned with ornate details and a protruding fleur-de-lis. Their attire includes a richly decorated robe with a high collar, featuring intricate designs and a large circular brooch on either side. They are depicted with a scepter in one hand and an orb in the other. The image is set within an oval frame surrounded by elaborate scrollwork and symbols, including the Latin inscription "EDWARDVS III. D.G. ANGLIAE ET FRANCIAE REX DOMINUS HIBERNIAE." The background is a textured field within the oval, with a coat of arms and other heraldic elements intricately integrated into the design. Beneath the portrait, there is a detailed description of the person's historical significance and achievements.
