Visual Summary

Brief Description

Bearded man in elaborate robes seated on a fur-covered ornate chair, holding a scroll

Detailed Description

A vertical black and white print depicts a man seated centrally, facing slightly towards the left. He has a long, dark, flowing beard that extends to his waist and a prominent mustache. His eyes are narrow, and his eyebrows are thick. He wears an elaborate headdress with decorative elements and voluminous, layered robes with wide sleeves. The man is seated on a large, ornate chair, which features prominent, shaggy fur-like armrests that drape over the sides. His right hand holds a rolled scroll, which has some visible script on its surface. Various lines of script are also visible in the upper left, upper right, and center of the print, as well as on the man's chest. The background is plain.
