Visual Summary

Brief Description

Man in dark robes and cap writes in an open book on a vibrant blue background

Detailed Description

A waist-up depiction shows a man with light skin, a long face, and a prominent nose, looking directly forward. He wears a dark, flat-topped cap that covers most of his hair, and a dark, wide-sleeved robe with a thin white band visible at his neck, tied with a dark string. His left hand holds a piece of light-colored paper, while his right hand, adorned with a gold-colored ring on the fourth finger, holds a slender, dark writing instrument, poised over an open book. The book has a reddish-brown cover and light-colored pages filled with dark text. It rests on a narrow, dark green surface at the bottom of the frame. The background is a solid, vibrant blue. In the upper left corner of the blue background, the word "ORONCIO" is visible in light-colored letters.
