A painted portrait shows a young man with dark curly hair wearing a dark military uniform
The painting is a head-and-shoulders portrait of a young man, positioned centrally and facing directly forward. He has light skin, blue eyes, a straight nose, and full, reddish lips. His cheeks show a subtle flush of red. His dark brown hair is curly and styled to frame his face, reaching just above his ears. He wears a dark blue military-style jacket with a high, stiff collar trimmed in red. Gold epaulets with horizontal stripes and a small gold button are visible on each shoulder. The jacket features several gold buttons down the front. Underneath, he wears a white collared shirt and a black cravat tied neatly around his neck. The background is a solid, dark reddish-brown color, providing a stark contrast to the figure.
