The image depicts a man wearing a white robe, with the robe draped over his left shoulder and wrapped around his waist, exposing his right shoulder and bare feet. He has a stern facial expression. The background features a beige wall with a brown stripe and a window with multiple panes on the right side. The floor appears to be yellow. The artist's signature is written vertically on the bottom right. The man is likely a wrestler, given the title.
