The painting shows a man's face, looking slightly to the right. His dark hair is combed back, and his eyebrows are thick and straight. He has a small mustache and a serious expression. The background is a warm, brown color that gets lighter towards the top of the painting. The man's face and neck are painted in a more realistic style, while the background is more rough and textured. The artist's use of bold lines and simple shapes gives the painting a sense of calmness and serenity.
