He is wearing a dark blue military uniform with gold buttons and red details on the sleeves, a leather belt, and light blue trousers. He wears white gloves and a sash diagonally across his chest. He holds a rifle with a bayonet attached in front of him. Beside him are several rifles forming a pyramid, with a rolled blanket and a leather pouch at the base. The background is plain.
