The image features a man in clerical attire with a skullcap. He is looking towards the viewer with an expressive face. The man has short gray hair and wears a clerical gown with a high collar and a stole. The frame around him is intricately engraved with inscriptions. Above him are two ribbons with the words "Serve God and be Chearfull." The background has a crosshatch pattern, and below are details about the man's age, date of death, and a poetic passage. The setting is formal and historical, likely for commemoration.
