A vertically oriented hand-colored print on parchment depicts Saint John, a person with a light skin tone and long blonde hair, standing within a golden architectural frame. Facing right, lips closed, he wears a white robe and a reddish-purple cloak while holding a gold chalice. A thin gold halo encircles his head. Behind him are two windows and a blue patterned wall. Latin text in black and red ink sits below the illustration.
