The image shows a portrait of a man depicted from the shoulders up in a profile position facing to the right. The man's facial features are well-defined with pronounced cheekbones, a slightly prominent nose, and a clean-shaven face. His hair is neatly styled, appearing to be combed back and tied at the nape with a small ribbon. He is wearing a dark coat with a high collar and a white cravat neatly tied at the neck. There is no visible jewelry, and he is not holding any objects. The background of the portrait is a simple dark circle. Beneath the portrait is an inscription with the name "Thos. Marston," and the artist's signature and address are faintly visible under the image.
