Descripción de la imagen
The image shows a full-body depiction of a bearded man standing upright. He has a solemn facial expression, prominent eyes, and a beard. His hair is long and wavy, partially covered by a large dark circular halo. He is wearing a long, flowing red robe over a lighter garment. The man holds a large wooden X-shaped cross in his left hand and a green book in his right hand, with both hands. The background consists of a simple grassy area at the bottom and a light sky with hints of blue. There is a column of text to the left of the figure.
