Visual Summary

Brief Description

A bearded man in red robes and wide-brimmed hat holds an open book, with a building and a lion.

Detailed Description

A full-length figure of a man with a long white beard and mustache stands centrally in a vertical composition. He wears a wide-brimmed red hat and a long, flowing red robe, with a dark green garment visible beneath the red at his neck. A long, thin red cord with tassels hangs down the front of his robe. His right hand, on the viewer's left, holds an open book with illegible text on both pages. A golden halo surrounds his head. To the man's left, a white, multi-storied building with a tall, pointed spire stands on a green base, featuring several windows and architectural details. To the man's right, at the bottom, the head and front paws of a golden-brown lion are visible, facing towards the viewer's right. The lion has a mane. The background is a golden color with visible texture, and the man's red robe extends to the bottom of the frame, covering most of the lower center.
