The image depicts an engraved portrait of a man's upper body. The man is facing slightly left with his head turned towards the viewer, wearing a traditional dark garment and a white neck cloth. He has curly, shoulder-length hair parted in the middle, a serious expression, defined nose, thin lips, and slightly heavy-lidded eyes. The background features a decorative oval border with lined patterns, and there is a printed Latin inscription below the portrait.
