The person has a calm expression, slightly downturned eyes, and wavy, light brown hair. They are dressed in a richly patterned green garment with gold detailing and a blue border around the neckline. The garment has intricate patterns and a prominent motif on the chest. The person's right hand is holding a slender, rod-like object against a gold background. The background features gold leaf and an elaborate border with red, green, and blue acanthus leaves and floral motifs encircling the central figure.
