He has a pointed beard and mustache, curly hair beneath a broad-brimmed hat, and is dressed in ornate historic noble attire with a high ruff collar. One hand holds part of his attire. In the background is a decorative oval frame with swirling patterns, framed by two cherubs. A coat of arms is at the top of the frame and below is scripted text with the man's titles and name.
