The image features a portrait of a man from the shoulders up, focusing on his profile as he faces to the right. The man has medium-length hair tied back with a ribbon, light in color. He has prominent facial features, including a strong nose and sharp chin. He is wearing 18th-century attire, a dark coat with a high collar over a light-colored cravat or tie. The portrait is circular, set against an off-white background. At the bottom is a beige strip with the handwritten name "Peter Jefferson."
