The image depicts a seated man from the thighs up, facing forward. He has a long, pointed nose, a prominent mustache, and full, curly hair reaching his shoulders. He is wearing a dark, richly-textured garment with wide, lace-trimmed sleeves and a square white collar. His right arm is resting on a cushioned chair arm, while his left arm is holding a rolled object in his lap. He is surrounded by an oval frame with decorative motifs, inscriptions, and a small crest. The background has a plain, textured pattern within the frame.
