Visual Summary

Brief Description

Young man with curly hair and a dark coat leaning on a ledge, looking slightly right

Detailed Description

A vertical image depicts a young man with light skin and curly, light brown hair, positioned in the upper left and center. He looks slightly to the viewer's right with a direct gaze. He has a faint mustache and a small amount of facial hair. He wears a dark red jacket over a white, ruffled shirt. A voluminous dark cloak drapes over his right shoulder and arm, extending down the right side of the image. His left arm rests on a horizontal, light brown ledge that spans the lower half of the image. His left hand is raised, fingers slightly splayed, with a dark ring on his ring finger. His right hand also rests on the ledge, fingers extended. Behind him, a dark column is visible on the far left, and a muted, dark blue and brown background appears on the right. Lighting illuminates his face and left hand, creating contrast with the darker areas of the composition.
