Portrait of a man with short, dark hair, wearing a black suit jacket with a white shirt and a white cravat. The man is sitting and looking directly ahead, with his right arm bent across his chest and his left hand resting on his lap. His face is lit, with rosy cheeks and a neutral expression. The background is a muted brown color with a lighter-colored wall on the left side and a darker area on the right side.
