The image shows a man standing upright with his legs slightly apart. His head is turned slightly to the right, revealing a nose and a full mustache. He has slicked-back short hair and is wearing a dark coat with a high collar over a white shirt. The coat has long tails and he is holding a large top hat against his chest. Under his arm, there is a bag or bundle tied with string. The background is blank, with a drawn line indicating a ground surface.
