The image is a black and white print of a man standing straight, shown from head to foot. He has short, dark hair, glasses, and a mustache. He is wearing an apron over a short-sleeved shirt, trousers, and sandals. In one hand, he holds a brayer, and the other hand is pressed against a textured surface. Linear marks accentuate his facial features. In front of him, there are a stack of paper and a spoon.
