The image features an engraving of a man from the waist up, positioned facing slightly to the right. He has a mustache, wavy hair styled back, and refined facial features with a composed expression. The man wears ornate armor with a lace collar, typical of aristocratic attire. The portrait is framed by intricate scrollwork with a lightly textured wall in the background. Below the portrait is an inscription identifying the subject as Victor Amédée, Duc de Savoie et Prince de Piémont, with the artist's signature "Martelle excudit."
