The image depicts a man in profile view from the chest up. The man has a prominent nose and a strong jawline, with wavy hair extending past his ears. He wears a dark coat with large buttons and a white cravat around his neck. The background is a simple, dark circular area contrasting with a lighter surrounding, creating a vignette effect. An inscription below the portrait reads "Louis Otterbury."
