The painting depicts a man with long, curly gray hair wearing a black suit with a white ruffled shirt, seated at a brown table. The man's hands are on the table, palms up, as if gesturing while speaking. The table holds a book with a reddish-brown cover, a piece of paper, and several metal drafting tools. A chair with a tan upholstered back is behind the man. To the right, an easel supports a canvas featuring a painting of a woman reclining on a bed, covered by a white cloth, with a red fabric draped over her. The background includes a window with a blue curtain and a beige wall with a column. The scene is a portrait of François Tronchin by Jean-Etienne Liotard.
