A photogravure portrait in warm sepia depicts an older man with medium skin tone. A voluminous, light-colored fur hood frames his face, which features a furrowed brow and graying mustache. He gazes forward, deep lines creasing the corners of his eyes. Below his neck, a textured, light-toned garment with visible stitching covers his shoulders. Text at the bottom border reads, "QUNANÎNRU—KING ISLAND."
