The image shows a man seated with his upper body visible. He is facing the right, with his left hand resting on a round object. He has a long, thin nose, a mustache, prominent cheekbones, and shoulder-length, wavy hair parted in the middle. He is wearing a draped garment covering his shoulders and chest. He is not wearing any visible jewelry. The background features an oval frame with a crest at the base, including a lion symbol and ornamental motifs. The text around the oval indicates the man's title as “J.C. Mesgrin President au Mortier au Parlement de Provence.”
