A vertically oriented black ink print depicts a stylized man in profile. Wearing a wide-brimmed hat and round eyepiece, his face is etched with sharp creases. A long cigar extends from his mouth. Dramatic white highlights define his features against a dark, textured background of intersecting lines. Below, bold strokes form a collared jacket. Pale, gold-flecked borders frame the composition, blending detailed printmaking with expressive, high-contrast portraiture.
