The image shows a man from the waist up, turned slightly to his right with head tilted downwards. He has a mustache and short dark hair under a wide-brimmed hat. The man wears a long-sleeved shirt, a vest, and has a large sack on his back. He holds objects in each hand, with one hand holding a basket of fruit. A small gourd hangs from the strap over his shoulder. In the background, a tree with foliage can be seen along with a natural landscape.
