A half-length portrait of a man with a reddish-brown beard, dark hat, black coat, and gloves
A half-length portrait depicts a man facing forward, positioned centrally against a dark, textured green background. He has light skin, a short reddish-brown beard and mustache, and dark brown eyes that look directly ahead. His nose is straight, and his lips are full. He wears a dark, flat cap on his head, covering his hair, and a dark, possibly black, coat with a prominent reddish-brown fur collar that frames his neck and shoulders. His shoulders are broad, and the coat extends downwards, filling the lower half of the canvas. His hands are clasped together at the bottom center of the image, just above the lower edge. The left hand, seen from the side, holds a pair of light brown gloves. The right hand, seen from the front, rests on top of the gloves, with a gold ring visible on the ring finger. Both wrists are adorned with white, ruffled cuffs that emerge from the sleeves of his coat. The overall lighting highlights his face and hands, creating a contrast with the darker clothing and background.
