Brief Description

Half-length portrait of a man with a mustache, beard, dark coat, white collar, holding spectacles

Detailed Description

A half-length portrait of a man is set against a dark, draped background. The man is positioned slightly to the right of the center, with his body angled towards the left and his head turned to face the viewer directly. He has light skin, dark brown hair that curls around his ears, a dark mustache, and a short, dark beard. He wears a small, dark cap on his head. His eyes are dark, and his expression is neutral. He is dressed in a dark, possibly black, long-sleeved coat with a wide, stiff white collar that extends over his shoulders. A dark, patterned cravat or tie is visible at his neck, beneath the collar. The coat has a row of small, dark buttons down the front. His right arm is bent, and his hand, with a white ruffled cuff, holds a pair of silver-rimmed spectacles and a light blue ribbon or cloth. The left arm is mostly obscured by the voluminous fabric of his coat. The background is a deep, muted teal or dark blue, with soft folds of drapery visible on the right side. In the lower left corner, a small section of a light teal or green surface is visible, possibly a table or ledge, with a piece of brown fabric draped over it. The lighting highlights the man's face and hands, creating a contrast with the darker clothing and background.
