The image depicts a man's upper body, showing from his chest to the top of his head. He is slightly angled to the left, with his gaze directed to the left side of the frame. The man has high cheekbones, a pronounced nose, and an angular jawline. He has close-set eyes and a contemplative expression. His hair is slicked back and neatly combed. He is wearing a formal double-breasted coat with a high collar and a visible tie. There is no jewelry visible, and there are no other objects in the portrait. The background is plain, focusing on the subject. The lower part of the portrait includes some script, likely the artist's details.
