This engraving features a portrait of a man's upper body. He faces slightly to the right, with his head turned toward the viewer, displaying a composed expression. The man has a short, neatly trimmed beard and wears a small cap. He is dressed in a formal garment with a ruffled collar, buttons down his chest, and an ornate frame surrounding the portrait. Below the frame, there is a decorative area with a skull and crossbones on the right side. The background is detailed, showing a reclining figure holding an hourglass and a scythe above the portrait, along with a heraldic symbol. Text is present on the frame and base of the engraving.
