Brief Description

Full-length portrait of a man in an ornate, embroidered costume, holding a hat and red cape

Detailed Description

A full-length portrait depicts a man in an ornate, embroidered costume standing against a plain, dark brown background. The man faces right, with his head turned slightly to his left, looking upwards. He has dark hair, prominent sideburns, a mustache, and a short beard. His left arm is raised, holding a black hat with a bright yellow or gold lining. His right arm is bent at the elbow, holding a folded red cape and a thin, dark stick, possibly a muleta or sword. He wears a light gray or silver jacket with intricate embroidery and tassels on the shoulders. Beneath the jacket, a white shirt and a light blue tie are visible, along with a wide, light pink sash around his waist. His tight-fitting trousers are dark brown or black with light gray or silver stripes running down the sides. He wears white stockings and black, flat shoes. Light illuminates the figure from the upper left, casting a subtle shadow to the right of his feet.
