The image features a portrait focused on the upper body of a man. He is shown in a three-quarter view, facing slightly to the left. The man has medium-length curly hair, a high forehead, arched eyebrows, large eyes, a straight nose, and a subtly downturned mouth with a small mustache. He is wearing a dark coat with a large, turned-up white collar adorned with tassel-like decorative elements. The background has an engraved texture depicting clouds in the sky and rocky formations on the right side.
