The image is a sepia-toned photograph of a man in a formal portrait. The man is positioned in front of an oval background. He is wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and a dark tie. He has neatly styled hair, a prominent mustache, and his gaze is turned slightly to the right. The photo appears to be an antique, with the print set on a card with the text "WILLIAM NOTMAN - MONTREAL TORONTO & HALIFAX" at the bottom.

Here is a description of the image:

This is a vintage sepia-toned portrait of a man with a well-groomed mustache, likely taken in the late 19th or early 20th century. The portrait is framed within an oval-shaped vignette, which is set against a rectangular backdrop, typical of the carte de visite or cabinet card format from that era.

The man is dressed in a dark-colored suit jacket and a lighter-colored dress shirt with a tie. His hair is neatly styled and parted. He is gazing off to the side with a serious expression.

At the bottom of the image is printed text: "WILLIAM NOTMAN - MONTREAL TORONTO & HALIFAX." This indicates the name of the photographer or studio and the locations where they had operations, suggesting a Canadian origin. The overall condition of the card seems good, with slight wear consistent with its age.
