The portrait is presented in an oval frame and showcases Schwend in a richly detailed attire, including a feathered hat and a fur-trimmed robe. The inscription below the image provides historical context, highlighting Schwend's role as a consul and his legacy as a respected leader. Meyer's detailed rendering and the inclusion of textual information make this engraving a valuable historical document.
