The image is a bust-length portrait of a man, depicted from the chest up. He is facing slightly to his right with his head turned towards the viewer, showing his face. The man has a prominent nose, slightly furrowed brows, and a reserved expression. His hair is dark, softly curled, and styled away from his face. He is wearing a dark cloak with a high collar, and an undergarment with a lighter color around the neck. There is no visible jewelry or objects held by the subject. The background is plain with minimal detailing, emphasizing the artistic dotwork used to create the portrait.
