Brief Description

Oval portrait of a man with a large brown wig, an orange coat, and a blue cloak

Detailed Description

An oval-shaped portrait features a man shown from the chest up, set against a dark, indistinct background. The man faces directly forward, with his head slightly tilted to the left. He has light skin, dark eyes, and a small, closed mouth; his cheeks are lightly flushed. His most prominent feature is a very large, voluminous, curly brown wig that frames his face and cascades over his shoulders, reaching down to his chest. He wears an orange, satin-like coat with a high collar, visible beneath a white, ruffled cravat that extends down his chest. Over his left shoulder and draped across his body is a rich blue velvet cloak, which appears to be lined with a lighter blue or silver trim. The cloak covers most of his right arm and wraps around his left side. On the right side of the background, a lighter, rectangular, stone-like texture is faintly visible. The lighting highlights the man's face and the textures of his clothing, creating a contrast with the darker areas of the background and the deeper folds of the cloak.
