Black-and-white, bust-length portrait of a man facing frontally, his head turned toward the right side of the image so that his face is in three-quarters view. There is a dark background behind him, and the sources of light create harsh patterns of light and shadow across his face. He has dark hair that is parted in the center and combed back neatly, and thick, dark eyebrows. He is wearing a dark suit with a white, collared shirt and a patterned tie.
