The image captures a man in profile view, facing right. He is shown from the upper body up and appears to have a serious expression. He has a prominent nose and side-parted, wavy light-colored hair tied back with a ribbon or bow. The man is wearing a high-collared shirt and a dark coat. The background is plain, and a circular vignette effect surrounds the portrait. The name "Charles Maurice de Talleyrand" is inscribed below the image.
