His hair is long, curly, and falls naturally to his shoulders. He is dressed in a dark robe with a white collar. There is no visible jewelry or objects being held by the man. The background is a dark shade within an oval frame, with linear patterns around it. There is decorative script at the bottom of the portrait.
