The image depicts a portrait drawing of a man. He is shown in profile facing to the right, displaying his head and upper torso. The man has a prominent nose, a strong jawline, and his hair is styled in a traditional 18th-century manner, tied with a bow at the nape of his neck. He is depicted wearing a high-collared coat with large buttons, and a cravat around his neck. The background consists of a simple shaded circle that contrasts with the lighter, unshaded surrounding area. The image is presented on a plain sheet with an old paper texture, with the name "Wm. Louis Valentine Dubourg" written underneath.
