The image shows an engraving of a man seated from the waist up. He is turned slightly to the left, with a serious expression. The man has a defined jawline, straight nose, and dark, wavy hair. He is dressed in formal attire, holding a book in his right hand and resting his left hand on his thigh near the book. On a table next to him, there is an inkwell with a feather quill. The background is plain and dark. Text at the bottom identifies the man as "THEODORIC ROMEYN BECK, M. D." with his signature.
