He is a mature gentleman with white hair curled over his ears, and a pink face. He stands with one arm resting on a tall rock to the right, a letter held in his right hand, looking over his shoulder to the left. In the background, to the left, a sea battle is taking place, with ships firing at each other, beneath a dark sky.
