The painting depicts a seated man with a receding hairline and thinning hair on the top of his head. He wears a light blue robe with wide sleeves over a white garment. A dark sash encircles his waist. The figure appears to be sitting on the floor, with both legs tucked under him. To the left of the figure, there are several lines of vertical black text written in an Asian script. A small black signature and a red seal are positioned below the text. The background of the painting is beige with a thin brown border around the edges, and appears to have the texture of paper or silk.
