The image depicts an older man shown from the chest up, in a side profile, facing to the left. He has distinct facial features with a prominent, long nose and appears to have a calm expression. His hair is voluminous and white, styled in loose curls that are gathered at the back. He is wearing a high-collared white shirt beneath a dark, textured coat. There is no visible jewelry or objects being held. The background is a plain, dark circle, contrasting with the lighter foreground.
