The person is positioned with their body turned slightly to the side, while their head is turned to face forward. They have medium-length, wavy hair and distinct facial features, including pronounced eyes and a long, narrow nose. The individual is wearing elaborate clothing typical of the period, featuring detailed patterns and a high lace ruffled collar.

The background of the image is plain with minimal decoration, and the top and bottom margins contain text. At the bottom, there is an intricate design that includes a crest and text in the style of a poetic or philosophical excerpt.
