The image features an older man inspecting his reflection in a mirror. He has a stern expression, deep-set eyes, and wears a bandana tied around his head. He is dressed in striped attire and holds a goblet. On the table are a sealed letter or package and a candle holder with a melted candle. In the mirror's reflection, the man's intense expression is visible. In the background is a framed picture of another stern-looking figure. The setting is rendered in a style that emphasizes shadow and light.
