Line engraving of a kneeling churchman in white robes praying as angels above hold a wreath beneath a radiant Trinity in the clouds.

Saint Charles Borromeo Crowned by Angels Before the Holy Trinity

A kneeling churchman in a white cassock and surplice, hands pressed together, gazes upward in a tiled interior. Above him, angels hold a laurel wreath toward the clouds where the Trinity is enthroned, with cherubs and clouds filling the upper register. Beneath the image, a Latin inscription and a small emblem appear within the plate border.
