The image is a historical portrait engraving of a man's upper half. He is facing forward with his head slightly turned to the left, looking directly at the viewer. The man has a mustache and goatee, with wavy, light-colored hair. He is dressed in an ornate outfit with intricate patterns and a large ruff collar. The portrait is in an oval frame with Latin inscriptions. Outside the frame, there are allegorical figures; one is looking at a mirror and another is holding scales. The background has decorations with symbols like an open book and a globe, suggesting scholarly themes. Latin text is also present at the bottom of the engraving.
