Description: Portrait of Count Engelbert II of Berg (1185-1225), archbishop of Cologne and a martyr of the Roman Catholic Church. He holds a crosier in his right hand, down which beads of liquid run.

In the background, an animate sun (left) and moon (right) brighten the sky; the moon’s face is pierced by a sword.
