Visual Summary

Brief Description

A black and white painted portrait of a bearded man, ruffled collar, draped fabric

Detailed Description

This black and white painted half-length portrait depicts a man looking directly forward. He has dark, curly hair framing his face, a full beard, and a mustache. His eyes are dark, and his lips are closed. He wears a dark garment, possibly a cloak or coat, over a white ruffled collar visible at his neck. His left arm is bent at the elbow, his hand holding a large, flowing piece of light-colored fabric that drapes across his chest and arm. White cuffs are visible at his wrists. His right arm is bent, his hand resting on a light-colored, rectangular block or pedestal. The background on the left side is dark and indistinct. On the right, behind his head and shoulder, a lighter, textured area depicts a landscape with what appears to be a large, distant mountain or hill range under a lighter sky. Visible brushstrokes contribute to the texture of the painting.
