The portrait depicts a man standing with one hand resting on a blue fabric covered table. He has a dignified posture, relaxed shoulders, and a calm facial expression. He has fair skin, a rounded face, grayish-white hair styled in curls typical of the 18th century. The man is dressed in a dark coat with decorative buttons and wide-cuffed sleeves showing white ruffled cuffs. He wears a white cravat. The background includes a stone column and a view of a landscape with a blue sky, hills, clouds, and trees.
