The painting depicts a man with a gunshot wound in his forehead. The man's face is the central focus, with his eyes and mouth visible. The image is rendered in a monochromatic color scheme, with varying shades of gray used to create depth and texture. The artist's use of drypoint technique is evident in the intricate details and textures present in the image. The man's face is rendered with a high level of realism, with subtle expressions and emotions conveyed through his features. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Gramatté, Walter.
