The image is a portrait drawing of a man from the shoulders up, depicted in profile facing to the right. The man is seated upright with his head turned to the side. He has distinct facial features, curly hair tied at the back, and is wearing a dark coat with a white cravat. The background is a circular dark shade framing his head and shoulders against the lighter surrounding paper. The bottom of the image has handwritten text, likely the signature "S.R. Caldwell."
