The image is an engraving of a man's upper body in profile facing right. He is in a regal pose with a slightly forward-facing head. The man has detailed facial features, including a strong nose, beard, and mustache. He wears a helmet with decorations and a plume, along with decorated armor, visible chainmail at the neck, and shoulder pieces. In his hand, he holds a large sword across his chest. The background shows an ornate archway with heraldic designs including lions and scrolls. The image is bordered by text mentioning "Stephanus Rex Angliae" on top along with Latin titles. Additional Latin text at the bottom provides historical context, rendered in calligraphic script.
