The image displays a full-length profile of a person standing. The person faces right with a slightly angled body. He has distinct facial features including a prominent nose and softly closed mouth. The person's hair is styled in long, curly 18th-century fashion. He is dressed in an elaborately detailed coat, knee-length breeches, and stockings. Black shoes are on his feet, and he holds an ornate walking cane in his right hand. The background features a serene outdoor scene with a calm body of water, trees, and mountains or hills.
