The image shows the upper half of a man's body in profile, positioned to the right. The man has distinct facial features, including a high forehead, a straight nose, and a slightly parted mouth, with eyes gazing forward. His hair is styled in short, tight curls, with a small portion tied back at the nape of his neck. He is dressed in a dark coat with a high collar and decorative buttons, layered over a white high-collared shirt with ruffled details peeking out. There is no visible jewelry or objects he is holding. The background is a simple circle framing the profile, with a light texture extending to the edges of the image. Below the circle is an inscription that reads "Thos. Webster."
