Beeldbeschrijving
The portrait shows the upper half of a man seated with his hands clasped in front. The man has a slightly stern expression with deep-set eyes and light, bushy eyebrows. He has short, white, neatly combed hair. He wears formal clothing including a black coat, buttoned vest, high-collared white shirt, and intricate cravat. The background is a dark, uniformly painted surface. A chair with a bit of red fabric is partially visible, adding contrast to the dark backdrop.
