The image shows a seated male figure from the waist up. The man faces forward with a slightly turned head, looking at the viewer. He has a distinguished facial appearance, an aged face with a neatly trimmed beard and mustache. His hair is dark and closely cropped, partially covered by a hat. He wears an elaborately designed robe with a high, pleated white ruff around his neck and detailed sleeves. He holds a scroll in one hand on his lap, while the other hand rests on the chair's armrest. The chair has large finials on the corners, enhancing its ornate look. The background has closely spaced horizontal lines providing texture and depth.
