The image shows a man standing upright facing slightly to the right. He has detailed facial features, including a pointed nose, intense eyes, and a bushy beard. His hair is tucked under a headpiece, and he is dressed in long, flowing robes with voluminous sleeves, a cloak draped over one shoulder, and boots rising to mid-calf. The man is holding a sword in his right hand, with the sword's tip resting on the ground. The background is a dark, textured surface, contrasting with the light-toned figure.
