Visual Summary

Brief Description

A bearded man in a reddish robe holds an orb and cross, against a landscape

Detailed Description

A circular painting depicts a man from the chest up, centered against a landscape background. The man has light skin, long dark brown hair parted in the middle, and a dark brown beard and mustache. He looks directly forward with a neutral expression. He wears a loose-fitting, long-sleeved robe in a muted reddish-pink color. His right hand is raised, palm facing forward, with the thumb and first two fingers extended and the ring and pinky fingers bent towards the palm. His left hand holds a dark, spherical orb. A slender golden staff with a small, ornate golden cross at its top emerges from the orb, held upright. The background features a landscape with green trees and rolling hills. On the left, a winding path or road leads into the distance. In the far distance on the right, a light brown building with towers, resembling a castle or fortress, stands on a hill. A body of water is visible in the mid-ground. The sky above is a clear, light blue.
