The painting depicts a man standing at a counter, wearing a green and white striped apron over a brown shirt and dark vest. He holds a small white cup in his right hand and a spoon in his left. The background is a plain off-white color. The man's attire and the setting suggest a casual, everyday scene. The artist's use of muted colors adds to the sense of simplicity and realism. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Edward Penfield.
