The portrait titled "Jonathan Dwight" by Joseph Steward depicts a man with dark hair pulled back, wearing a green coat with large buttons and a high collar, underneath which is a white cravat with ruffles. He has a sideburn. The background of the portrait is an oval-shaped landscape featuring trees, a body of water, and a building on the left side, set against a cloudy blue sky. The man's attire and hairstyle suggest an 18th or early 19th-century setting. The portrait itself is set against a solid gray background.
