The drawing depicts a man's head and shoulders in profile, facing right. The man has wavy, shoulder-length hair with a receding hairline and a long beard that reaches his chest. He appears to be wearing a collared shirt or robe. The drawing is rendered in pencil on a light-colored background with hatching and cross-hatching techniques used to create shading and texture. The overall style is realistic. The title of the work is Self-Portrait (10th Plate) by Alphonse Legros.
