The image is an engraving showing a side profile of a man from the chest up. He is facing right with his upper body slightly angled away. The man has a prominent nose, strong jawline, and a calm expression. His hair is styled in a classic 18th or early 19th-century fashion, with voluminous curls framing the ear and tied back into a queue. He wears a dark coat with a high collar and a white cravat wrapped around his neck. The background is a simple, dark circular area. There is no visible jewelry or objects. The image includes handwritten text, reading "S. Parker" and "Jonah."
