The image shows a caricature of a man with exaggerated facial features and a humorous depiction of having a human upper body and a turkey's lower body. He is walking confidently up a set of steps, holding a flag that partially reads “Le Grano” and wearing a suit with a bow tie. There are several sketch-like bystanders behind him, and the background consists of stairs suggesting a staircase.
