The image shows a man sitting on the edge of a bed. He is leaning slightly forward with his forearms resting on his thighs and his hands clasped together. The man has a mustache, short hair, and is wearing a light-colored long-sleeved shirt, light-colored pants, and sneakers. To his side, there is a shelving unit with various items, and a paper bag on the floor. In front of him, there is an older model television on a stand with an unidentifiable program on the screen. A window with exposed brick is visible behind him.
