The image shows a profile portrait of a man facing right. He has a prominent nose and chin, with a serious expression. His hair is short and curly, and his attire consists of a high-collared coat with large buttons and a white cravat. There are no visible jewelry. The background is circular and dark, contrasting with the lighter tones of the man's features and clothing. The image is on a light-colored paper with the handwritten inscription "Haskins" below the circle.
