The image shows a man standing confidently on a raised platform. He has one hand on his hip and the other hand holding a sword. He has sharp facial features, a mustache, and styled hair. He is wearing elaborate Renaissance-style clothing with a ruff around his neck, a patterned doublet with puffed sleeves, puffy breeches, and a sash over his shoulder. There is no visible jewelry. The background depicts a town, rolling hills, and armies in formation, suggesting a historical scene. An emblem with a coat of arms is visible in the top right corner.
