Black and white portrait of a man, profile view. The man has short hair, a long beard and mustache, and is facing right. The image is a side view, showing the left side of the man's face. The man appears to have a serious expression, with deep wrinkles on his face. The background of the portrait is dark, with the man's face and hair lighter. The portrait is on a beige background, and the artist's signature is in the bottom right corner. The portrait's color scheme is primarily black, white, and shades of gray. The portrait is rectangular.
