The image depicts a caricature of a man in profile, facing left. He is balding with gray hair combed back, and has a large nose. He wears a long, dark-colored coat with a white shirt and black bow tie. His hands are clasped behind his back. The background is beige with a reddish-brown splotch behind the man. A thin black line borders the image. At the top, "VANITY FAIR. March 29, 1873" is printed. At the bottom, "STATESMEN, No. 141. 'A Feminine Philosopher'" is printed. A signature is visible on the bottom left and some illegible writing on the bottom right.
