The image shows two individuals on horseback, their bodies visible from the waist up. The person on the left faces forward, while the person on the right faces slightly to the left. The person on the left has a youthful face with soft features and short, neat hair, topped with a crown. They wear elaborate attire, including a frilled collar and decorated armor, and carry a long scepter. The person on the right has a bearded face and wears a tall, fur-trimmed hat and ornate garments with a high-collared cloak. Both horses are detailed, with the right one adorned with plumes and decorative coverings. The background features an engraved scene of a town labeled "Preßburg" and a river labeled "Danubius Flu," with small figures suggesting a lively environment or a battle scene.
