The image shows a young boy standing confidently with one hand on his hip. He has short, neatly combed hair and a cherubic face. The boy is dressed in an elaborate period costume, including a textured tunic with wide sleeves, an ornate collar, knee-length pants, stockings, and pointed shoes. Beside him is a small dog sitting on the floor. The background is a simple textured wall and floor. The engraving includes the artist's signature, Timothy Cole, in the bottom right corner.
