The image depicts a figure sitting in a chair. The person is shown with both arms resting on their lap. In the left hand, they hold a money bag labeled "1001", while coins spill from the right hand into another bag labeled "NATION". The facial features are exaggerated, with a round, plump face and a broad nose, adorned with a smile. A grand hat featuring three large plume-like feathers obscures the person's hair. The ornate clothing includes a dress with detailed patterns, roses, and folds that suggest heavy, luxurious fabric. At the figure's feet are elongated fingers labeled with names or words. The background is plain, with shading suggesting a simple indoor space.
