Thinly-striped black-and-white short-sleeved T-shirt, blue jeans. Silver watch and African-looking bracelet on arm. His face is somewhat wider on bottom near the jaw. Full-lipped. He's black. Very warm and sincere, mild-mannered and laughs often."

The artwork combines historical imagery with contemporary personal description, engaging with themes of identity, race, and history. Below this block of text, there is further detail indicating this as an edition piece, signed "Glen Ligon 93" and marked with "PP 1/3".
