The image depicts a man's upper body in profile from the shoulders up. Positioned facing right, his facial features include a prominent nose, slight smile, and defined chin. His light-colored hair is styled in a manner typical of the 18th or early 19th century, with curls framing the side of his head and gathered at the back into a small ponytail. He is wearing a dark coat with a high collar and a white cravat. The background is a simple, off-white circular frame.
