The image portrays a young boy from the waist up, facing slightly to his left. He has a round face, soft cheeks, curly hair with a parting and a bow, and a calm expression. He wears a detailed coat with decorative buttons, lace cuffs, fur trimming, and intricate patterns. The oval frame around him has an inscription, and below the portrait is an ornate base with a coat of arms with three fleur-de-lis, surrounded by floral motifs and a crown. The background is plain.
