The image shows the upper body of a person reflected in a window or glass surface. The person is facing forward and positioned centrally within the reflection, showing more of their shoulders and head. They have short, dark hair and facial features that are somewhat obscured due to the reflection. They appear to be looking directly at the viewer and are wearing a light-colored collared shirt. The background includes a patterned or perforated surface, possibly a pegboard, with other objects partially visible, along with a street scene reflected in the window.
