The image is a monochrome illustration of an individual from the shoulders up, in profile facing to the right. The person has a high forehead, a prominent nose, and short, soft curls framing the side of his head. He is wearing a high-collared coat with large lapels and a cravat wrapped around his neck. The background is a simple circular area in a darker shade contrasting with the lighter shaded head and shoulders. Below the illustration, there is a name written in cursive: "Walter Herron." No visible jewelry or other objects are present.
