The image is an engraved portrait of a man. He is portrayed from the chest up, facing slightly left and looking directly at the viewer. The man has long, wavy hair, a high forehead, large eyes, and a firm mouth. He is wearing a dark garment with a white collar. Surrounding the person's image is an ornamental border with text, and in the background, there are books and possibly a curtain, indicating an interior space with elements suggestive of study. A coat of arms with intricate designs is visible on the left side.
