The image shows a man's upper body from the chest up. He is slightly turned to the side with his hands clasped together, holding a folded cloth. The man has a serious expression with prominent cheekbones, a furrowed brow, light facial hair, including a mustache, short brown hair mostly covered by a dark cap, and is dressed in a dark garment with a high, white ruffled collar. A ring is on his left ring finger. The background is muted green.
