The image shows an elderly man in a loose-fitting, hooded garment sitting cross-legged on the ground. He rests one arm on a large oval frame displaying a portrait of another man. The elderly man has a bushy beard and his hair is mostly covered by the hood. He has a neutral expression, looking outward. The man in the oval frame is depicted from the waist up, wearing detailed clothing with a vest, sash, ribbons, and a medal. The background includes a large tree, a lantern in the man's hand, a book near the tree roots, flowers, foliage, a coat of arms, and decorative natural elements. The image is embellished with text and script at the bottom.
