Brief Description

Waist-up portrait of a man in a powdered wig and brown coat, looking directly forward

Detailed Description

This is a waist-up portrait of a man with a round face and light skin, depicted against a dark, indistinct background. The man's head is turned slightly to his left, and he looks directly forward with a small, closed-mouth smile. His cheeks are rosy, and his eyes are dark. He wears a large, powdered white wig with curls that frame his face and extend over his shoulders. His attire includes a brown coat with wide sleeves, worn over a white shirt or cravat. Glimpses of gold or yellow fabric, possibly brocade or trim, are visible beneath the brown coat on his chest. His left arm is bent, and his hand, with light-toned skin, appears to be resting on or holding a stack of papers or a book, which is partially visible in the lower left corner. The background is a muted, dark brown, with subtle variations in tone that suggest a plain wall or a large canvas. The lighting illuminates the man's face and wig, creating a contrast with the darker tones of his clothing and the background.
