A heavy set middle aged man stands facing us, holding up in his left hand an open book with the word, ”Fingal” on its spine in gold letters. He wears a serious, intent expression, with his mouth partly open. He has a full, round face, fair skin, light blue eyes, a high forehead and red hair pulled back and curled at the sides. He wears a high collared white shirt with lacy white cuffs and a yellow gold waistcoat patterned with red roses. Over this he wears a red coat with its cuffs and collar lined with red and gray fur. The background is a mottled gray.
