The image depicts a portrait of a man from the shoulders up, facing forward. His head is slightly tilted, his facial features are accentuated by strong, expressive lines, and he has a mustache. The man's hair is thick and wavy, appearing somewhat unkempt with a distinctive volume. He is wearing a high-collared shirt. The background is dark, providing a strong contrast to the lighter tones used for the figure's face and clothing. There are no visible jewelry or objects held by the subject.
