A man, back to the viewer, is seen carrying a caduceus in his left hand. In the center of each border of the square that frames is a different image. At the top of the square is lion framed in a coat of arms; at the bottom is an open book with the title text upon the pages. On both the left and right sides are closed books with long stemmed flowers behind each. The book title on the left reads Il Purga Torio, and the title on the right reads Il Para Diso.
A man sits at a desk reading a book, which is propped up by another book, with a smoldering candle nearby. Behind this is a large open window with what appears to be the sun's rays shining upward, and a large dark bird flying overhead.
