A man in a dark hat and clothing points to the right, against a dark background
A waist-up portrait depicts a man against a dark, muted olive-brown background. The man is positioned slightly to the left of center, facing slightly towards the right but looking directly forward. He has a pale complexion, short dark hair that frames his face, and a faint mustache. He wears a wide-brimmed, dark hat with a small dark bow on its crown. His attire includes a white shirt with a high, ruffled collar and vertical pleats, secured with a small white bow at the neck. Over this, a voluminous dark cloak is draped over his left shoulder and arm, extending across his body. A lighter grey-blue sleeve is visible on his right arm, ending in a ruffled white cuff. A dark blue band is visible around his waist. His right hand rests on a light brown wooden railing, adorned with two gold rings on his ring finger. His left hand is raised, with the index finger pointing directly to the right, while the other fingers are curled. In the upper right portion of the background, a light brown architectural column is partially visible. On the upper left, a small white rectangular label is affixed to the wall, bearing dark text that reads: "RAFFAELLO. URBINAS. F. / MDXVIII. / A. D. M. IOANNES. M. F."
