Description
Photographic portrait of an unidentified man, pictured in bust, [s.d.]. The man is shown from the chest up, looking slightly off to the right. He wears a three-piece suit of medium tone (somewhere between a dark and light color) and a vertically-striped necktie which appears to fasten onto the top button of his shirt. The man's head is bald, bookended by two swaths of remaining hair above the ears. The top of the skull is remarkably flat. The man also wears a salt-and-pepper beard trimmed short to his face. His eyes are large and expressive. He appears to be in his early fifties.
