The image shows a portrait of a man positioned in profile, facing to the right. He has a high forehead, prominent nose, and slightly turned mouth. His hair is styled neatly and tied with a ribbon at the nape. He is wearing a high-collared garment, a buttoned jacket, and a cravat around his neck. There is no visible jewelry or objects in his hand. The background is a simple circular frame within the square image.
