The man is wearing formal attire typical of the late 18th to early 19th century, with a dark coat, a high-collared white shirt, and a visible large button. The background is a shaded circle, with the artist's name "S. Memin Philad." inscribed below the portrait. Beneath the portrait, there is a handwritten name, "John Reynolds."
