The image shows an engraved portrait of a man from the waist up. He is positioned slightly turned to his left but looks directly at the viewer. His facial features include arched eyebrows, deep-set eyes, a prominent nose, and a pointed beard and mustache. His hair is voluminous, curly, and extends outward, framing his face. He is dressed in a high-collared outfit typical of the 17th century, adorned with intricate patterns and buttons. The collar is large, with lace edging. He appears to be wearing ornate armor over a richly decorated cloth garment. No visible jewelry is present, and he holds no objects. In the top right corner of the image, there is a coat of arms alongside inscriptions, including the year "1624". The background is plain, emphasizing the detailed engraving of the man.
