The artwork features a bust portrait of a man in an elaborate oval frame. The man is positioned slightly turned to his left, facing the viewer. He has a deeply marked face with prominent ridges and heavy lines, suggesting age. His hair is short, curly, and appears thinning, matching his curly beard. He wears a draped garment over his shoulders. Surrounding the portrait are ornate architectural elements, including scroll motifs and a stylized shell design at the top. An inscription in a serif font is found below the frame. Horizontal lines in the background add texture and depth.
