Artist, Swiss, 1859 - 1923

The image depicts a man's upper body, showing his head and shoulders. The man is either seated or standing still, facing slightly to the side and looking directly at the viewer. His facial features include a strong nose, high cheekbones, and a full beard that comes to a point. He has short, thinning hair and is attired in formal clothing with a high-collared shirt. The background is a textured, dark space that contrasts with the highlights on his face, helping to accentuate his features.
