Bust profile, looking to right shoulder; within an oval frame and an elaborate outer border of arms and instruments of war; the portrait is on a separate plate from the outer border on a tablet below it ‘JOANNES AUSTRIACUS GAROLI V. F. / [BELGII GUBERNATOR]’, numbered on the top right: ‘fol. 402’. Signed on the outer border, on the bottom left: ‘ALoemans sculp.’ (AL monogrammed). The outer plate was used for other portraits, see the ‘Portrait of Giovan Luigi Vitelli’ at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam [RP-P-1909-4523]. The plate with the portrait was misplaced so the lower line of text is not entirely visible.
