This artwork depicts a man shown from the side, capturing his profile from the top of his head to his feet. He is seated with one knee pulled up to his chin and his hands clasped in front of him. His face is depicted in profile, showing a strong jawline and a contemplative expression. The man wears a hat that covers most of his hair, and his clothing consists of a textured coat and loose-fitting pants. Around him, there are elements suggesting an interior space, including a large, textured window on his left and a stove visible in the background on the right. The floorboards and a block or crate provide additional context to the setting. A small, rectangular object resembling a canister or box is placed on the floor near his feet. The engraving is monochromatic.
