The image shows a profile portrait of a man's head and shoulders framed within an oval medallion. The man is positioned in profile, facing to the right, with defined facial features, including a prominent nose and brow. The man's hair is styled in curls cascading down from his face, typical of 18th-century wigs. He wears a jacket with a leaf or flower pattern. The medallion is topped with a decorative ribbon or bow. The portrait is set against a textured background within the oval frame, which rests on a rectangular base with text detailing the name and titles of the artist Jean-Siméon Chardin. The creator information at the bottom of the image indicates it was drawn in 1776.
