Visual Summary

Brief Description

A half-length portrait of a young person in a dark feathered hat, white ruffled collar, and fur coat.

Detailed Description

A half-length portrait shows a young person positioned slightly to the right and looking forward with a neutral expression. The person has light skin, dark eyes, and light brown hair visible beneath a dark, flat cap. The cap is adorned with a prominent white feather on the left side. A white, ruffled collar, or ruff, encircles the neck, sitting atop a dark, fur-trimmed garment. The fur, which appears to be light brown or grey, lines the collar and the front opening of the coat. The coat itself is dark, possibly black or deep brown, and features an intricate gold pattern of interlocking diamonds or squares across the visible chest area. A long, thin gold chain with a small, ornate pendant hangs around the neck, draped over the fur and patterned fabric. The background is a plain, dark, muted color, providing a stark contrast to the person's light skin and the details of the clothing. The lighting appears to come from the upper left, highlighting the face and the textures of the clothing.
