The image shows a portrait of a figure with long, reddish-brown hair. The person has deep-set eyes, a neatly trimmed beard, and is dressed in a red garment with gold accents. They wear a yellow sash, hold a golden orb with a cross, and have a raised hand gesture. A golden halo surrounds the person's head. The background is neutral, bordered by a thick black frame with an "IHS" monogram in the top left corner.
