The painting depicts a man with a stern expression, his face tilted slightly to the right. He has dark hair and is wearing a light-colored shirt. The man's features are rendered in bold brushstrokes, with a focus on capturing his intense gaze. The background of the painting is a muted color, which helps to draw attention to the subject's face. This portrait is reminiscent of the work of artist Frances Hodgkins.
