The image is a monochromatic portrait showing the upper body and head of a man in profile. The person faces the left side of the image. He has defined facial features with pronounced cheekbones and a prominent nose. His hair is styled high and swept back, and he has a full, curly beard extending from his chin. The man wears a high-collared shirt under a darker garment, though details on the clothing are minimal. The background is plain with a textured effect, and there are no distinct objects in the scene. In the top right corner, there is a square block with the numbers "1904." The bottom left corner contains a signature and date reading "S.F. Pondelik, 6/XII 1904."
