The image shows the upper section of a man's face and body. He is facing forward, with his head slightly tilted, looking directly at the viewer. The man has a weathered face with pronounced features; his eyes are small and deeply set beneath bushy eyebrows, his skin has a ruddy tone, and he has a full white beard. His hair is long, curly, and tangled, framing his face with a mixture of darker and lighter shades. He is wearing a simple yellow garment with white underneath. The background is an indistinct, muted bluish-green, lacking any specific details.
