The man is wearing a collared shirt with a tie. The portrait shows the man from the chest up, facing right. The drawing style is realistic with detailed shading. The artist's signature is in the bottom-right corner. The background is plain and light-colored. The image is in black and white. The portrait is framed by a thin line, with a thicker border around it.
