The image shows a man from the chest up, facing slightly to the left with his head turned towards the viewer. He has a broad forehead, pronounced eyebrows, a full pointed beard, and a mustache. His hair is neatly combed back, appearing short and wavy. He wears an elaborate ruffled collar typical of the 16th or 17th century, along with a buttoned outer garment with a decorative pattern. Around him are four illustrated oval cartouches displaying maps, landscapes, and ships with decorative borders. The background includes additional embellishments and nautical instruments.
