The image shows a man standing in a confident pose with one hand on his hip and the other resting on a club perched on his shoulder. The man's facial expression is serious, and he has long, curly hair that falls around his shoulders. He is dressed in a Roman-style short tunic with a lion's pelt draped over his shoulder, secured around his torso. To his left, there is a lion laying down, facing forward, and a rooster standing beside it. The foreground includes a book and some armor pieces lying on the ground. The background depicts a battle scene with soldiers on horseback and foot engaged in combat, with smoky chaos visible in the distance. Classical depictions of chariots riding on clouds are seen in the sky. The scene is surrounded by an ornate frame with decorative elements including foliage on the sides.
