The image shows a person outdoors holding a horn. The individual is facing the camera, with facial features partly obscured by the vintage, sepia-toned photograph. They appear to have a mustache and wear a brimmed hat. The person wears a dark jacket with a high collar, dark pants tucked into boots. The background has grassy terrain with a rock formation and a flag in the distance.
