This is an engraved portrait of Sir Benjamin Rudyer, showing his upper body and head. He is slightly turned to his right, facing the viewer. He has a beard, mustache, expressive eyes, furrowed brows, wavy medium-length hair, and is wearing a patterned garment with a large ruffled collar. He does not appear to be wearing any visible jewelry nor holding any objects. The background features a textured pattern within an oval frame with inscriptions and a poem at the bottom in a decorative frame.
