National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man portrayed from the chest up. He is facing slightly left, with his head turned toward the viewer. The man has distinct facial features with a prominent nose and visible wrinkles, and his hair is wavy, falling to his shoulders. He is dressed in formal clerical attire with a large collar, robe, and an insignia on his chest. An oval frame surrounds him with Latin text along its border, two stars are outside the frame on either side of the oval, and a heraldic shield with a coat of arms is at the bottom. The background consists of fine lines creating a textured appearance.
