The image shows a drawing of an older man from the waist up, kneeling on the ground. He is leaning on a rock, with arms extended towards a book in front of him. He has a long beard, prominent nose, and shoulder-length curly hair. His upper body is bare, revealing a strong physique. There is a lion resting with its head down at the man's feet. The background features a rocky terrain with sparse vegetation, including trees with arched branches and leaves.
