The image is a portrait showing the upper half of the body from the chest up. The person is positioned in profile, looking to the right of the image. He has short, neatly combed hair with a slight wave, and his facial features include a sharp nose and a defined chin. The man's attire is a high-collared coat with large buttons visible along the front. The background is a simple, circular, shaded area. There is a signature and some text written below the portrait on a textured surface.
