The image shows a man standing in a side profile position. He is leaning back with one hand tucked behind his back and the other holding a cane. The man has long hair extending below his hat, a top hat, overcoat, pants, and pointed shoes. He is wearing a white shirt and a dark cravat. The background shows an urban setting with buildings and a large, dome-like structure in the distance, suggesting a cityscape. The setting is drawn with a technique that emphasizes line shading. A caption appears at both the top and bottom of the image.
