The image depicts a man in a side profile view from the shoulders up. The man has a nose, mustache, beard or goatee, and short wavy hair. He wears a wide-brimmed hat with a ribbon or band, and a cloak with an ornate collar design. There is no visible jewelry or objects in his hands. The background is plain, emphasizing the subject who seems to be a detailed sketch or drawing.
