He wears a hooded habit secured by a knotted cord with a medallion and holds a rustic wooden cross with his left hand. His head is turned upward and to the viewer's right, with an open-mouthed expression of spiritual intensity. His right arm is extended outward, palm open. To the lower left, a smaller, winged angelic figure kneels on a plinth, facing forward and pointing downwards and to the right with its right arm. The base of the monument features a partially visible inscription, a sculpted skull, and what appears to be foliage or drapery on the right side.
