The image depicts an upper body portrait of a man facing the viewer straight on. He has strong facial features such as a jawline, brow ridge, and light-colored eyes. His dark brown hair is slightly wavy, brushed back, with some strands falling. The man is wearing a dark garment with a high collar and visible layers underneath. The background shows incomplete watercolor elements and artistic brushstrokes on the right edge. There is also neutral wash of colors, and handwritten text at the bottom of the image.
