The image is a black and white photograph of an old man sitting on the steps of a building. He is wearing a hat, a jacket, and trousers, and is holding a cane in his right hand. He has a serious expression on his face and is looking directly at the camera. The man appears to be homeless, as he is sitting with his legs crossed and his hands resting on his knees. The background is a stone wall, and there is a stamp on the top right corner of the image. The photograph is titled "Mendiant Breton" and is likely from the early 20th century.
