A portrait of a young man with brown hair holding a hammer and a gold ring
A vertical portrait painting depicts a young man shown from the chest up. He has a long, narrow face with light skin and a prominent nose. His light blue eyes gaze slightly to the left. His brown hair is cut in a bowl style, reaching just above his eyebrows and covering his ears. His lips are thin and closed. He wears a dark, possibly black, garment with a white collar visible at the neck. Beneath the white collar, a red collar is visible, and a gold chain rests on top of the red collar. His left hand is visible in the lower left quadrant, holding a small, dark-colored hammer with a pointed end. His right hand, positioned below the left, holds a gold ring with a small red stone. Another gold ring is visible on the ring finger of his right hand. The background behind the man is a plain, light cream or off-white color, showing a network of fine cracks across its surface.
