The image shows an old, ornate metal gate with a portrait of a man in the center. The gate is made of wrought iron and is covered in ivy. The man is wearing a suit and tie and appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties. He has a serious expression on his face and is looking directly at the camera. Above the portrait, there is a banner with a floral design and the words "Joseph Bouteller" written in French. The background is dark and out of focus, making the gate stand out. The overall mood of the image is somber and contemplative.
