The image depicts a portrait drawing of a man's upper body turned to the right in profile. The man has strong facial features, a prominent nose, and a chiseled jaw. His hair is styled neatly with curls framing his face and tied back into a low ponytail with a ribbon. He is wearing a dark, formal coat with large lapels and a round button, over a high-collared, ruffled shirt. There are no visible jewelry or objects in his hands. The background is a plain, textured dark oval set against a lighter rectangular border framing the portrait. Below the image, the name "Rodgers" is written in cursive script on a paper strip.
