The image is a close-up portrait of an elderly man's face. The man appears to be in his late 60s or early 70s, with dark hair and a white beard. He has a serious expression on his face, with his eyes looking off to the side and his mouth slightly open. He is wearing a white scarf around his neck, which is draped over his shoulder. The background is dark and out of focus, making the man the focal point of the image. The painting is done in a realistic style, with loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors.
