The image shows a profile portrait of a man named "Capitaine Thompson." He is seated in a side-facing position to the right, with a round face, strong chin, prominent nose, and wavy, styled hair. He wears a formal military uniform with an ornate shoulder epaulet, visible buttons, and a high collar. The uniform appears textured, and the background is a simple, dark circle. There are inscriptions on the artwork's border, including the artist credit.
