The image depicts a man's upper body in a three-quarters view. His torso faces slightly left while his head turns right, looking into the distance. The man has distinguished features with a downward-curving mustache, short wavy hair, and historical attire. He wears a ruffled collar and a coat with buttons. One hand is visible, partially tucked into the coat with a ring on his finger. The background features vertical lines for texture. Below the man, there is text identifying him as "Adrianus Stalbent" and Latin inscriptions indicating his profession.
