The image is a portrait of a man shown from the chest upwards, turned in profile facing to the right. He has short, wavy hair and prominent facial features, including a strong nose and a clean-shaven face. He is wearing a high-collared coat with two visible buttons, and a white cravat is visible. The background is a plain, dark circle that contrasts with the lighter tones of his clothing and skin. The edge of the circle meets an area with a beige tone, on which there is handwritten text reading "Chas. W. Goldsborough."
