The figure is shown from the upper body to the knees, positioned in a kneeling posture with both hands raised. The person has a distinct facial profile featuring a high forehead, a sharp nose, and a small mouth. Their head is covered by a cap or hood, with neatly trimmed facial hair. The attire consists of a luxurious robe with a high fur collar and fur-trimmed sleeves. An ornate lectern or stand is positioned in front of the person, supporting an open book with visible text written in a decorative script. A speech scroll emanates from the person's mouth, bearing the words "Ung Dieu et Ung Roy." In the background, heavy draped curtains frame the scene, and the floor is tiled with alternating light and dark squares.
