The image shows a man in black and white, seated from the waist up. He faces slightly to the left, with legs apart, and rests his right hand on his right knee. The man has short, tightly curled hair and a neutral expression, looking directly at the camera. He wears a long-sleeved shirt, buttoned at the neck, and trousers. A belt is visible around his waist. His left hand grips the edge of his shirt or trousers. There is no visible jewelry. The background is plain, with no discernible objects, providing a simple contrast to the subject. The photograph is bordered by a red line against a slightly discolored backdrop.
