This is a profile portrait of a man in detailed engraving style. The man's upper body, including his head and chest, is depicted in profile facing to the right. He has distinct facial features with a strong nose, defined eyebrows, and a pronounced chin. His hair is styled in tight curls with a ribbon securing it into a tail at the back. He is dressed in formal attire, wearing a dark coat with a high collar and a white cravat neatly tied around his neck. There are no visible accessories or objects in the image aside from his clothing. The background is a simple, dark shaded circular area. The print is drawn and engraved by St. Memin in Philadelphia, and the name "Bailey Bartlett" is inscribed beneath the image.
