This is an engraved portrait of a man positioned facing slightly to the right. He gazes directly at the viewer. The man has curly hair, a trimmed mustache, and a goatee. He wears elaborate clothing typical of the period, including a decorated doublet with ornate patterns and draped beads, and an intricately designed lace ruff around his neck. The background features a patterned oval frame with the text "CRVX FIDEI COTICVLA" encircling the portrait against a cross-hatched backdrop. Additional text is below the portrait, potentially providing historical context.
