This is an image of an engraved portrait contained within an ornate oval frame. Below the frame are various artistic implements arranged in a still-life manner: a palette with several holes likely for holding brushes, a maulstick (used by painters to support the hand holding the brush), several rolled and unrolled scrolls or sheets of paper, and what looks to be books or blocks of paper stacked beside a square object (perhaps a container of pigments or a box). There are decorative flourished elements around the frame, including what appear to be acanthus leaves.

Text is present at the bottom of the engraving, which seems to give a name, followed by a designation or title (this is partially obscured due to the angle and picture quality), implying that the portrait might be that of an artist or someone associated with the arts, celebrated by the inscription for some form of achievement or status. The text at the very bottom could be read as "Gravez par sa Femme," which translates from French to "Engraved by his wife," suggesting that the artwork was created by the spouse of the individual depicted.
