The image is an engraved portrait of a man shown from the waist up. He is facing forward with his head slightly turned to his right. The man's facial features include a well-defined beard and mustache, with wavy, voluminous hair. He wears an elaborate suit of armor with intricate detailing, including shoulder guards and a high collar with chainmail visible underneath. His expression is serious, and his gaze is directed toward the viewer. There is no visible jewelry or objects held by the person. The background is a textured oval with an inscription around it, reading "CHARLES DE GONTAVT BARON DE BIRON MARESCHAL DE FRANCE," and additional script is present below the oval.
