Visual Summary

Brief Description

An elderly person with a long white beard and hair, holding green leaves

Detailed Description

A vertical image depicts an elderly person from the chest up, facing slightly to the right. The figure has light-toned skin with a reddish tint on the cheeks and hands. Long, flowing white hair extends from the head down past the shoulders, and a very long, full white beard covers the chin and chest, blending with the hair. The eyes are narrow, and the nose is broad. The figure wears a loose-fitting, light beige or off-white robe with darker outlines and faint gray vertical markings. The right hand, positioned centrally, holds several long, slender green leaves or blades of grass. The background is a plain, light cream color with some discoloration. On the right side, vertical lines of dark script appear above two stacked square red seals.
