This image is an engraved portrait of a man's upper body. The man is facing slightly to his left, looking directly at the viewer. He has distinct facial features, a composed expression, prominent eyebrows, and a smooth complexion. His hair is styled in an elaborate, curled manner typical of 18th-century fashion. He is dressed in richly decorated clothing, including a high-collared coat adorned with a decorative brooch and a ruffled cravat or collar. In the image, he is depicted wearing an ornate garment with a visible badge or emblem. The background presents an oval frame that encloses the portrait, surrounded by detailed linework, with engraved text and ornamental elements below the portrait, including a crown and an emblem with fleur-de-lis.
