This painting depicts a man with a bushy beard and mustache, wearing a dark brown coat over a lighter brown vest and a blue shirt. His right arm rests on a surface in front of him. The background is a muted brown color. The man's facial expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. His hair is dark and unkempt, adding to his rugged appearance.
