The painting shows a young soldier standing in a relaxed pose. He is dressed in a red tunic and shorts, with a white turban wrapped around his head. A sword hangs at his side, and he holds a small object in his right hand. The soldier's attire and the style of the painting suggest a Middle Eastern or North African influence. The artist has used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and texture in the image. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
