The image is of a man seated on a wooden chair with his legs crossed. He has a serious expression, a wide-brimmed hat, short hair, and is wearing a cloak, tunic, trousers, and shoes. He is holding a rosary in one hand and a walking stick in the other. The background shows a crowded cluster of multi-story buildings and rough vegetation on the ground.
