Bischof von Augsburg mit drei Wappen

Deutsche Grafik 1483–1490, um 1485

The image shows a figure standing upright. The person is positioned facing forward, with one hand raised in a gesture and the other hand holding a long golden staff with an ornate top. The figure has prominent facial features, depicted with linear details, and the person's hair is not visible as they are wearing a tall red and white mitre adorned with blue and green gems. Their clothing is a rich brown robe draped over a blue garment with white sleeves visible, featuring jewel-like red accents on the cuffs. The figure is surrounded by a decorative frame with floral motifs at the top. At the bottom, there are two heraldic shields, one red and white and the other black and white, resting on a green background. There is no visible background behind the figure, as it is set against a cream-colored backdrop.
