Portrait of Alexandre Perregaux, seated at a table. We see him half-length and 3/4, his head tilted and turned towards the viewer. His black hair is long and styled back, he has sideburns. His eyes are large and dark, looking at the viewer. He holds a golden medallion in his left hand. The right arm is resting on the table, the open hand. He wears a light shirt and a green jacket with a red collar. He is seated on a chair, the red backrest is visible. The background is very dark. It could be that Perregaux was represented in his study and that the medallion is an allusion to his activity as a miniaturist.
