This painting shows an old man with a long white beard and a turban. He's sitting at a small table with a book and a pen, looking like he's writing something. The man is wearing a long robe and has a basket behind him. The painting is done in watercolour, and you can see the brushstrokes. The colours are muted, with lots of browns and tans. The man's face is quite detailed, but the rest of the painting is more loose.
