Here's a description of the image:

The image is a sepia-toned portrait, likely a print or photograph, of Philipp Melanchthon. It is part of a series called "Bruckmann's Portrait-Collection" as indicated by the text at the top of the image.

Melanchthon is depicted in a formal pose, wearing a dark robe with a fur collar and a ruffled white shirt. He has a beard and mustache. His expression is thoughtful.

Below the portrait is the name "MELANCHTHON" in capital letters. The name of the artist is "A. Noack pinx." and "Friedr. Bruckmann phot." indicating the photographer or printer. The phrase "Depose. Registered." is also visible, suggesting the image was copyrighted. At the bottom it reads, "Friedr. Bruckmann's Verlag in München, Berlin & London," indicating the publishing locations.

The image is set against a pale pink cardstock with a thin pink border. The background is black, which is likely from the backing of the image and not part of the original portrait card.
