The image shows a side profile portrait of an individual. The person is depicted from the chest up, seated or facing towards the left, with their head in profile against a dark, circular background. They have a sharp nose, defined chin, and small curls framing their head. The individual is dressed in a period style coat, with details such as high collars that partially cover their neck, and a white cravat or neckerchief below the chin. There is no visible jewelry, and the person is not holding any objects. The background is a simple, dark circle. A handwritten note at the bottom identifies the person as "Lord Kennedy, Hon Robert Kennedy."
