The image depicts an engraving of a man in a right-facing profile, featuring his upper body up to the shoulders. The man has detailed facial features, with a strong chin and a prominent nose. His hair is styled back in waves. He is dressed in a high-collared coat with a visible front button and a cravat tied around his neck. The background is a plain circle with a soft gradient around the man's head. Surrounding the engraving is text crediting "St. Memin, Philadel." and identifying the man as "Ant: W. Corris."
