The image depicts the upper body of a figure from the waist up. The person is slightly turned to the viewer's left, with one hand on their chest and the other holding a long, slender object resembling a rod with a cross on top. The facial features are delicately rendered with prominent eyes, a slightly open mouth, and soft, curly hair framing the face and neck. The figure appears to be male, unclothed, displaying a well-defined torso and muscular arms. There is no jewelry present. The background is plain, with some subtle texture and small patches of discoloration on the paper, giving the image a historic and naturalistic feel.
