The image shows an upper body portrait of a man from the waist up. He is looking directly at the viewer, with a distinguished facial profile including deep-set eyes, a prominent nose, and a strong chin covered by a neatly trimmed beard and mustache. His hair is short and wavy. He is wearing a voluminous garment with a wide collar. In his left hand, he holds a small string of beads, with his right hand partially visible at the bottom. The background has a textured pattern, and the name "Horatius Gentilescius" is inscribed below the portrait.
