The image depicts a man seated in a chair. He is leaning slightly to his right, with his right arm resting on the backrest of the chair. The man has a round face with short, wavy hair. He is dressed in an 18th-century style outfit, including a long coat, waistcoat, knee-length breeches, stockings, and buckled shoes. Beside him is a table with books visible on it. The background is softly shaded and textured.
