This portrait features a young man with short, dark hair, wearing a white shirt and a dark tie. He has a brown belt around his waist, and his right hand is raised to his chin. The painting's style is characterized by visible brushstrokes and a muted color palette, with the subject set against a plain background. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation.
