The image is a portrait engraving of a person seen from the head and shoulders, slightly turned to the right and looking directly at the viewer. The facial features include a high forehead, arched eyebrows, prominent eyes, a straight nose, and small closed lips. The curly hair is styled away from the face. The person is wearing an elaborate lace ruff around the neck with pearls, a dark garment with buttons and pearls, and a brooch or decorative detail on the shoulder. The background is plain, highlighting the oval frame or medallion around the portrait with inscribed text along the rim.
