This painting shows a man in a black coat with a white collar and cuffs, sitting with his left hand on his hip and his right hand holding gloves. He has long dark hair and is looking at the viewer. The background is a landscape with trees and hills under a blue sky with clouds. The man's face is serious, and his clothing is formal. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the folds of the man's clothing and the texture of his hair.
