Two charcoal portraits of a haughty young man. He has a square face, with heavy-lidded eyes, dark, well-groomed eyebrows, and a deep frown. His hair is short and well-kept. In the portrait on the left, he is looking to the side with a disapproving, haughty expression on his face, his neck curving elegantly. In the portrait on the right, his eyes have closed considerably and he is looking slightly upwards, seemingly more disgusted than before.
