The image depicts a portrait of a man seated with his upper body visible. He has a round face with pronounced eyebrows, deep-set eyes, and full lips. His hair is styled in thick curls reminiscent of an 18th-century wig. The man is wearing a double-breasted coat with large buttons and a white shirt visible at the collar and cuffs. He is facing slightly to the right, with his left arm either resting on a surface or in his lap. The background is plain, possibly a dark-colored wall.
