The image shows a man in a military uniform, standing upright. He wears a dark blue coat with gold epaulets, light blue trousers, a red sash, and a black shako with a feather plume. He holds a sword against his left shoulder, wearing white gloves. In the background is a grand building resembling the U.S. Capitol, with an American flag, against a light blue sky. The ground is grassy with patches visible. Text at the top and bottom includes "U.S. Military Magazine" and dedication to the "Washington Light Infantry of Washington City."
