Seated man with powdered hair, blue striped coat, yellow breeches, holding a light blue paper
A man is depicted seated against a dark, plain green background. He is positioned slightly to the right of the center, facing forward with his head turned slightly to his left, looking directly at the viewer. He has light skin, dark eyes, and a neutral expression. His hair is powdered white, styled with sideburns that curl forward over his ears. He wears a blue coat with thin, vertical dark stripes, featuring a wide collar and three visible dark buttons down the front. Beneath the coat, a white ruffled shirt or cravat is visible at his neck. His right arm is bent, and his hand holds a light blue piece of paper with handwritten text. The text, written in a dark script, appears to read "Sebastian Martinez" at the top, followed by "y Perez" and "de la Calle" below. His left arm is mostly obscured by his body. He wears bright yellow breeches or pants, with three dark buttons and a silver buckle visible on his left leg, just above the knee. His legs are crossed, with his left leg over his right. He sits on a simple wooden chair with a woven seat, the back of which is visible behind his right shoulder. Light from the upper left illuminates his face and the paper.
