Saint standing in contraposto, with head turned in profile. The left hand is raised in front of breast from the waist height, and the right is stretching forward. Clothes cling to the body in striped pleats, tightened at the waist, with long sleeves with flaps. Voluminous cloak draped over the left upper arm goes around the body and covers the right leg with a winding ending. On his feet there are large boots. The noble head of typically Komersteiner’s facial features is framed by locks of thick, short hair and a short beard connected with a mustache.
