The image shows a historical portrait of a man in profile, facing right. The person has distinct facial features, a prominent nose, well-defined cheekbones, and curly hair framing his face. He wears a military uniform with high collar, shoulder epaulettes, and decorative buttons. The uniform suggests a formal role, possibly a high-ranking officer. The background is neutral, with emphasis on the man, and the text at the bottom reads "Lieut Gaines. Edmund Pendleton."
