The image shows a man seated on a horse. He is upright, holding the reins with one hand and a long staff with the other. The man has wavy hair, a mustache, and a small pointed beard. He wears armor with engravings, a sash across his chest, and a laurel wreath on his head. The horse is mid-stride, with a flowing mane and tail. In the background, there is a vast landscape with distant mountains and tiny figures on horseback. A few clouds are visible in the sky.
