It depicts Paolo Vettòri, an admiral and captain-general in the service of Pope Leo X, in a three-quarter profile pose, adorned in a military uniform and holding a sword. The background features a window with a view of ships at sea, hinting at Vettòri's naval career. The engraving also includes a coat of arms and a caption detailing Vettòri's achievements and dates of his military service. This artwork is a testament to Zaballi's skill as an engraver and provides a glimpse into the life of a prominent military figure in 16th-century Italy.
