The image is a monochrome portrait showing a profile view of a man from the chest up. The man is facing to the right. He has a high forehead, strong nose, and is clean-shaven, with distinctive sideburns that curve down towards his jawline. His hair is styled back and tied at the nape of his neck with a ribbon. He is dressed in a formal jacket with large buttons and a high collar, accompanied by a neck scarf tied in a knot. The background is an oval black expanse, surrounded by the plain cream color of the paper it is printed on.
