The image shows a man facing forward with his body slightly angled to the right. He has an expressionless face with a slightly furrowed brow, a pronounced nose, thin lips, and light eyes. His hair is balding on top with some hair around the sides and back. He is dressed in formal attire, including a black coat, a light brown vest, a white shirt with a high collar and a white cravat. He holds a cane or walking stick with his right hand. He is seated near a green surface, possibly a chair or bench. The background features a painted backdrop of a pastoral scene with a wooden bridge over a river and trees in the distance. A red draped curtain runs across the top of the image.
