The image shows a man standing and holding a large staff in his left hand. His right hand is raised, and he is looking upwards. The man has a long beard and mustache, short curly hair, and is wearing a flowing robe. He is barefoot, and there are some plants and rocks near his feet. A halo-like radiance appears behind his head. The background is plain.
