The image displays an engraving of a man from the chest up, facing slightly to the left, centered in an oval frame. He has a serious expression with a long, straight nose, slight chin, and long, curly hair flowing past his shoulders. He wears a high-collared garment with a cloak, a visible lace frill of a shirt, and a sash diagonally across his chest. The frame is decorated with text and decorative elements including a partial crown at the top right corner. The background has a pattern of fine lines, with text around the oval reading "CAROLVS SECVNDVS DEI GRATIA MAGNAE, BRITANNIAE, FRANCIAE, ET HIBERNIAE REX," and the engraving is signed with "Wolf Kilian exaud" at the bottom edge.
