The image shows the upper body of a man in profile, with distinct facial features such as a prominent nose, defined lips, and a strong jawline. He has short, wavy hair and is dressed in 18th-century formal attire, including a high-collared shirt with a cravat and a coat with buttons. The background is a simple shadow, and there is text detailing the engraver and location. Below the portrait, the name "Wm. Young Birch" is written.
