The work is made on a small (smaller than A4) sheet of paper. Most of the composition is taken up by a figure of a young man with long hair. The man turned three quarters to the left is sitting on a three-legged backless stool. The young man has a palette and brushes in his right hand, and a brush in his left hand. An easel with a hilly landscape and a tree is depicted in front of the painter. In the background, the artist painted a window frame. The image is framed by three black frames, which are different in width. In general, Mykhailo Boichuk paid great attention to the line, its capacity, because in each work he sought to achieve completeness of content, using the most concise means and forms.
