Antique late 19th or early 20th-century Victorian oval-framed portrait of a gentleman featuring a mustache, suit jacket, and bow tie.
This appears to be a classic "crayon portrait" (a photo-enlargement technique popular in the era with hand-detailed charcoal/crayon accents).
The portrait is set inside a ornate black oval frame with decorative carved/molded flourishes. A fantastic historical piece for collectors, antique enthusiasts, or rustic gothic home decor.
