Brief Description

Oval portrait of a man with long gray hair, red coat, brown fur collar, ruffled shirt

Detailed Description

An oval, bust-length portrait shows a man with fair skin and a high forehead, facing forward with a slight turn to his right. His long, wavy gray hair recedes at the temples and falls to his shoulders. He has blue eyes, a prominent nose, and full lips that form a subtle smile. His cheeks appear flushed with a reddish hue, and he has a noticeable double chin. He wears a deep red coat with a wide, fluffy brown fur collar that extends over his shoulders and down the front. Beneath the fur, a white ruffled shirt or cravat is visible at his neck and chest. Several round, red buttons run down the front of the coat. The man's shoulders fill the lower half of the oval frame. The background is a plain, dark brown, contrasting with the subject's lighter skin and red attire. The lighting illuminates his face and the front of his clothing, casting soft shadows.
