A frontal portrait of Mr A. S. Mitchell, an elderly man dressed in a dark jacket and breeches, with large silver buttons, a white shirt and bowtie, and black dress shows with large buckles. He is seated in an ornate gilt chair, carrying a pair of white gloves in his right hand, and a sword resting against his left side. There is a small side table to the right, cut off by the picture's edge. Mitchell's face, shirt front and right hand are sharply lit, in contrast to dark shadowy background.
