The image depicts an engraving of a man from the chest up, facing slightly to his left with a composed expression. He has short, wavy hair, a cap, and a furrowed brow. The man has a full beard and mustache, dressed in a garment with a fur-lined collar. In the background, there is a scene of a lecture or sermon. The portrait is framed by an oval border with inscriptions. There are no visible pieces of jewelry or objects being held by the man.
