The engraving depicts a man seated at a table with his head turned slightly to the left and tilted upwards. He has a pointed nose, thin lips, a beard, mustache, high forehead, receding hair, and neatly combed back hair. The man wears a dark, formal garment with a ruff collar. On the table in front of him are an inkpot with a quill, an open book, and an hourglass. The background has a dark, patterned texture, and there is Latin text at the top and bottom of the image.
