The image shows a man standing with one hand on his hip and the other holding a stick or cane. He has curly hair and a beard. He is wearing a long dark coat, a blue tunic, and red patterned trousers. A hat and a white cloth are on the ground near his feet. The background has a textured wall on the right and an earth-toned backdrop with some greenery near the ground.
