The image depicts a man in an upper body portrait, facing slightly to the viewer's right, holding a staff in each hand. He has a long face with a solemn expression, short, wavy hair, and a large hat. He wears a richly decorated garment with a broad, ornate fur collar and a garment clasp across his chest. He has a chain with a decorative medallion around his neck. The background has a textured, cross-hatched pattern.
