A vertical etching and engraving depicts Anthony van Dyck as a bust portrait with wavy hair and a curled mustache, looking back over his shoulder. The bust rests on an ornate pedestal featuring Latin text, a heraldic shield, and two flanking helmeted busts. A trumpet and winged staff with snakes cross below the inscription. Fine lines create a cloudy sky, while dense hatching defines the shadows and textures of the figures and stone.
