A vertically oriented, oval oil painting depicts a man with light skin tone. He turns slightly to our right, looking at us with dark, curly hair and sideburns. He wears a black jacket over a high-collared white shirt and folded neckcloth, his figure set against a muted gray and brown background. Light highlights the pale contours of his face and the crisp white fabric, while his mouth is set in a neutral line.
