The portrait shows a young man with dark wavy hair and a thin mustache, turned slightly toward the viewer. He wears a dark military coat with heavy braided epaulettes and a high collar, set against a plain dark background. The caption identifies him as El Conde de Teba, a Spanish nobleman painted by Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes. Goya portrayed Spanish aristocrats and officers in the early 19th century, often against simple backgrounds that keep attention on the sitter's face.
Wide white border around the image; grainy halftone/collotype texture typical of an early 20th-century art reproduction card. No printed text or handwriting on the front.
No postmark. Divided-back card with white border; matte/other texture. Pencil dealer marks "112" and "1.00" at top left (not correspondence). Printed caption identifies the Goya portrait in the Frick Collection.
