Der griechische Philosoph im Halbbildnis wiedergegeben, in einen Folianten vertieft. Neben ihm am Bildrand eine Laterne mit Kerze, als Verweis auf die Legende, dass der antike griechische Philosoph (um 410-323 v. Chr.) spottend demonstrieren wollte, dass er mit der Laterne einen Menschen vergeblich suche. Der Philosoph, der Ãœberlieferung entsprechend, hier in einfacher Kutte mit krausem Haar dargestellt.
