A pictorial-style bookplate in black ink on ivory paper featuring a drawing a bald man in a suit and tie, looking at a book with a magnifying glass. Behind him are paintings and books, and a vase with roses is on his right. The scene is inset in a circle with the edge of the open book and the vase of roses extending past the border. Beneath is a scroll which reads "Ex libris J. Cardaso Goncalves."
