This image shows a man from the waist up. He is standing in a slight three-quarter pose with his body angled slightly to the side while his head faces forward. The man has a facial hairstyle, including a mustache and goatee, and short, wavy hair. He is wearing a dark suit jacket over a waistcoat with a patterned texture, a white shirt, and a bow tie. In his hand, he is holding a set of spectacles with a visible chain. The background of the photograph is plain.
