The image shows a portrait of a man depicted from the shoulders up. He is positioned facing forward, slightly turned to his right. The man has a well-groomed mustache and short hair, revealing a high forehead. He wears a pleated ruff collar around his neck and a dark garment. Draped across his chest is a chain. The background consists of a patterned oval frame with inscriptions along its edge, which further contains additional text below the portrait.
