A representative portrait of the monarch in a sitting position, given below the knee in a half-profile in the interior. Тhe way of presenting the ruler to the public is symbolically determined and recognizable. He is shown in an officer's uniform, with characteristic glasses, a discreet mustache and combed black hair. With his right hand, he is leaning on the empire style armchair in which he is sitting, and with the forearm of his left hand, in which he is holding bent white gloves on a table with an officer's hat on it. A officer’s saber is painted along the left leg. He has the Order of the Karađorđe's Star on his neck. The background is light brown, neutral.
