Visual Summary

Brief Description

A man in a red hat and ornate clothing, with a sculpted relief and text on the wall

Detailed Description

A vertical painting shows a man's upper body, positioned slightly to the left of the frame's center, against a dark background. He has fair skin, reddish-blonde hair, and light-colored eyes, looking directly forward with a neutral expression. He wears a large, soft red hat with black trim, covering most of his hair. His attire includes a dark garment, possibly black, with a white ruffled collar edged in gold. Around his neck are two strands of a gold-colored chain. His right arm is bent, with his hand resting near his waist, adorned with multiple rings on his fingers. He holds a small, round, metallic object with a textured surface. The visible sleeve of his garment is voluminous and a pinkish-red color, with black vertical stripes. To the left of the man's head, against a dark wall, is white text in an old script that reads: "DA ICH HET DIE GE STALT WAS ICH ZZ HAR ALT 1517 HH PINCEBAT". Above and to the right of the man's head, a light-colored relief sculpture is visible, depicting a dynamic battle scene with numerous figures, some on horseback, engaged in combat with various weapons.
