Theodore Lohman stands, left-of-center, facing towards the camera but looking left. A corn-cob pipe hangs from his mouth as he rests one hand to his hip. In his other arm, his rifle rests in the crook of his elbow. A string of several ducks hang from his shoulder. Behind him and to the right, a shack stands in partial view along the right half of the image. At left, the marsh extends into the distance behind Theodore.
