The image features a man shown from the shoulders up, facing partly left with a stern expression. He has deep-set eyes, a prominent nose, a strong jawline, and thick mutton chops as well as a mustache framing his face. The man wears a tall black top hat, a dark formal coat with wide lapels, and is set against a dark, cross-hatched background. The portrait is detailed and rendered in a monochrome palette.
