The image shows an engraved portrait of a man visible from the waist up. He is seated slightly turned to his right and gazes directly at the viewer. His hair is shoulder-length, wavy, and appears loose, framing his face. The man has a mustache and a slight beard below his lower lip. His clothing includes a broad, pleated white collar and a flowing dark garment that drapes over his shoulders and arms. He appears to be holding a book in his left hand, which rests on a surface. The background is a blend of intricately detailed shading with a textured pattern on one side and a depiction of clouds on the other. There are no visible pieces of jewelry.
