The image shows an engraved portrait of a man's upper body. He is facing slightly to his right with a dignified pose. The man has an angular face, a trimmed mustache and goatee, and short, combed-back hair mostly covered by an ornate crown. He wears a richly decorated outfit with a high ruff collar, a chain with a medallion, and an embellished cloak. The background consists of engraved lines, creating a textured backdrop. The scene is enclosed within an oval frame with text identifying the man as Matthias I. Additional text beneath the portrait identifies him as an emperor and king of various regions.
