His hair is curly and shoulder-length. He wears period attire with a lace collar and a garment that looks like a mix of armor and fabric, with visible straps and shoulder pads. There is a belt or strap across his chest. The background has a simple, hatched pattern. The style of the image is classical and engraved.
