The image is a black and white portrait of a man's face. The portrait is drawn in a sketch-like style, with bold lines and shading to give it a realistic appearance. The man has a beard and mustache, and his hair is styled in a short, slicked-back manner. He is looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. The background is dark, and there is a sign on the right side of the image that reads "FREE BASEL". The sign is hanging on a wooden wall.
