Visual Summary

Brief Description

A man in a dark hat and fur-trimmed coat holds a rolled paper, looking left

Detailed Description

The painting depicts a man in a three-quarter length portrait, positioned against a dark, plain background. His head is turned slightly to his left, and his gaze is directed towards the left edge of the frame. He has light skin with rosy cheeks, a prominent nose, and full lips. His short, dark brown hair is visible beneath a dark, flat cap adorned with a small, light-colored emblem that resembles an "M" or "W". He wears a white collared shirt with subtle stitching around the neck, visible beneath a dark, possibly brown, undergarment. Over this, he wears a dark blue-grey coat with a wide, dark fur collar and fur trim along the opening. His right hand, positioned in the lower-left corner of the frame, holds a small, tightly rolled piece of paper with faint script visible on it. A simple gold band is on the ring finger of his right hand. The background is a uniform dark green-brown, providing a stark contrast to the man's face and the lighter elements of his attire.
