The image shows a man standing with a long-handled axe. He has dark curly hair, a mustache, and is wearing a uniform with the number "8" on the chest. He has one hand on his hip and the other resting on the axe handle. He is wearing a tall helmet-style hat with an emblem at the front. The man's feet are crossed at the ankle. In the background, there is a painted backdrop with architectural designs and a vague landscape with distant trees.
