This print shows a man positioned slightly left of center with his back to us, facing a brick structure surrounded by bushy foliage. He is wearing a hat and a long coat with short trousers, and he casts a dark shadow on the brick structure. His arms are bent and seem to be held near his waist. The scene is surrounded by a thick border of blank beige paper.
