The image shows a man standing next to a public letter box on a city street. He is leaning slightly to the side as he inserts mail into the box with one hand while holding a large mailbag with the other. The man's facial features are not clearly visible due to the angle, and he is wearing a bowler hat. His hair is mostly covered by the hat. The man is dressed in a light-colored suit, which includes a jacket and pants, along with dark shoes. A large mailbag, which he is holding in front of him, is hanging on his left side. The background features an urban setting with multi-story buildings, including a prominent building with ornate architecture on the left and other smaller buildings extending along the street. People can be seen walking in the distance along the sidewalk and a few horse-drawn carriages and trams are further along the street.
