The image shows an engraved portrait of a man facing slightly to the right. He has long wavy hair, a mustache, and a pointed beard. He is wearing a dark cloak over a white collared shirt. The background features an oval frame with a decorative crest at the bottom enclosing the portrait. Fine lined engravings fill the space around the man. Below the oval frame, "René Descartes" is inscribed.
