The image shows a portrait of a man's upper body. He is facing slightly to the right, holding a pen in his right hand as if he is writing on a piece of paper in front of him. The man has a rounded face with a pronounced nose and a small goatee on his chin. His hair is covered by a cap, with a few curls visible. He wears a dark, long-sleeved garment with a large, white collar embellished with a floral decoration. The sleeves end in white cuffs and the fabric has a textured, striped pattern. Two coat-of-arms symbols are above and on either side of his head. The background has horizontal lines, and there are decorative text lines below the portrait.
