A vertically oriented print in black ink on cream paper depicts James MacNeill Whistler, a man with a light skin tone, dark curly hair, and a thick mustache. Shaded with dense, overlapping hatching lines, he wears a monocle over his left eye. Facing us from the shoulders up, he gazes forward with a closed mouth. A jacket is defined by textured strokes, and a handwritten signature appears along the bottom edge.
