Visual Summary

Brief Description

Bearded man in dark robe and hat sits at a desk with hourglass, papers, and book

Detailed Description

The painting depicts a seated man, shown from the waist up, positioned slightly to the right of the center, looking directly forward. He has a long, light-colored beard and mustache, and his facial features are set in a neutral expression. He wears a dark, flat-topped cap and a heavy black robe with a wide, brown fur collar. His right hand rests on his left hand, which is positioned near the center of his chest, holding a fold of his robe. To the man's left, on a dark green tabletop, is an hourglass with dark sand in the lower bulb, set in a wooden frame. Further to the right on the table, a small, light-colored wooden inkwell sits next to a piece of white paper with handwritten text in dark ink. A white quill pen lies across the paper. Below the paper, a dark green book with a gold spine and red ties is placed horizontally. To the far right, a small, dark red object, possibly a wax seal, rests on the table. The background behind the man is a dark green curtain with a subtle patterned texture. The overall color palette is dark, dominated by greens, browns, and blacks, with lighter tones for the man's face, beard, and the paper.
