The image depicts a portrait of a man from the shoulders up. The man faces the viewer solemnly, with a high forehead, pronounced brows, and a full beard. His hair is short and receding, and he wears ecclesiastical clothing with a buttoned collar and an embroidered vestment. He also wears a large chain with a cross around his neck. The background is textured and dark, with a lighter-toned inner frame resembling stone. An inscription at the bottom identifies him as François de Sales.
