The image shows a man seated at a piano. He is upright with his body slightly turned toward the camera, hands resting on the piano keys. The man has thick, curly hair and a pronounced mustache. He is wearing a sleeveless ribbed tank top and pants. A necklace with a circular pendant and a bracelet on his left wrist are visible. In the background, there is a window, a telephone attached to the wall, and a framed picture of a ship propped against the wall on top of the piano. Papers and books are visible on shelves nearby.
