The image shows a portrait of a man in a half-length view. He is seated facing slightly to his left but looking directly at the viewer. The man has a pointed mustache, a short goatee, medium-length hair combed back, and is dressed in formal attire including a garment with a wide, white collar. He wears a pendant with a star emblem around his neck. The portrait is framed by an ornate border of foliage, and the background is dark, contrasting with the lighter tones of his attire and the frame.
