The image is a portrait showing the head and upper shoulders of a person in profile, facing to the right. The person is in a seated or neutral position, with the upper body turned slightly to the left. They have distinct facial features, a prominent nose, and full lips, along with voluminous, textured curls. The person is wearing a formal coat or cloak, typical of historical attire. A decorative bow adorns the top of the oval frame. The background within the oval has a textured pattern, while the area outside the oval has a crosshatch pattern. The name "P. CAYEUX" is inscribed below the portrait, and there are fine text inscriptions at the bottom corners with the engraver’s and designer's names.
