The artist uses exaggerated features and a simple line to highlight the subject's prominent nose and monocle, emphasizing their unique appearance. The work, executed in ink on paper, showcases the artist's ability to capture personality and individuality through caricature, a genre that was popular in the late 19th century. The drawing is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
