A man in a red cap and dark tunic against a landscape with trees and distant buildings
A man is depicted in a head-and-shoulders view, positioned slightly to the left and looking towards the right. He has a pale complexion, dark brown hair that reaches his shoulders, and a short, dark fringe across his forehead. His eyes are light, and his nose is long and straight. He wears a red, soft cap that covers the top of his head and ears. Around his neck and draped over his shoulders is a light pink scarf, tied loosely. His garment is a dark, almost black, tunic with a high neckline.The background features a light blue sky that transitions to a lighter hue near the horizon. On the left, a small, leafy tree stands on a gentle hill, with faint white buildings visible in the distance behind it. On the right, a taller, more slender tree with distinct green leaves rises from a golden-brown ground. The landscape behind the man consists of rolling hills in muted greens and browns.Across the top, in gold lettering, is the inscription: "MATTHAEVS. SASS. TVE. NVS. OBIIT. 1506". The man is positioned prominently in the foreground, with the landscape receding behind him.
