A vertically oriented sepia photogravure depicts the upper body of an older man with weathered skin, his gaze directed toward our right. Light from the left illuminates deep furrows across his brow. He wears a striped, woven cap and layered necklaces featuring beads, small crosses, and a large crescent ornament. A dark garment covers his shoulders, while the right side of his face and the background merge into deep shadow.
