They have a high forehead, prominent eyes, a slightly upturned lip, and short, curled hair. The person is wearing a garment with an elaborate ruffled collar and a triangular hat. The background features an engraved circular frame with the text "MARIE STEWART REYNE DE FRAN ET DESCOSSE," and intricate hatching for texture.
