The image is a black and white photograph of a young man sitting on a wooden floor in a room with a curtain in the background. He is wearing a white shirt, a black vest, and black pants. He has a serious expression on his face and is looking directly at the camera. His left arm is stretched out to the side, as if he is posing for the photo. His right hand is resting on his knee and his left hand is holding a piece of paper. The overall mood of the image is somber and contemplative.
