The second portrait from the left shows an older bearded man with a balding head and tousled hair, wearing a dark buttoned garment with visible pockets and a pair of spectacles hanging at his chest, standing with clenched hands at his sides and mouth slightly open. The third portrait features the same older bearded man facing slightly toward the viewer with one hand extended palm up and the other relaxed, his dark coat showing creases and pocket details. The rightmost portrait presents the older man again, leaning slightly with both hands held out and a somber expression, his dark coat and neckwear visible against a darker backdrop. The overall sheet shows slight folds and spots on the pale margins surrounding the portraits.
