The image shows an engraving of a man depicted from the waist up, facing forward with his head turned slightly to his left. He has a beard and mustache, wearing a cap. His attire is ornate, featuring a decorated coat or cloak with fur trim on the shoulders and intricate patterns. The man holds a rod in his right hand and his left hand rests near his waist on a sword tucked into his belt. He wears a chain around his neck with large links. In the background, there is a decorative frame with two cherubs at the top and a circular motif surrounded by a ribbon with an inscription. The setting is monochromatic, with a detailed border containing text at the bottom of the engraving.
