Brief Description

A bearded man holds a small standing sculpture, with a draped bust on patterned fabric

Detailed Description

A dark, vertical painting features a man seated, holding a small sculpture, with another sculpture nearby. He occupies the central and upper-right portion of the canvas, shown from the waist up. He has short dark hair, a neatly trimmed dark beard and mustache, and dark eyes that look directly forward. He wears a dark, long-sleeved garment, possibly black, with a subtle white ruffle or collar visible at his neck. His skin tone is warm, with highlights on his forehead, nose, and cheekbones. The man's right hand (viewer's left) supports a light-colored, possibly plaster or marble, sculpture of a standing nude male figure. This sculpture is highly detailed, depicting a muscular body with one arm raised and the other bent at the elbow, resting on its hip. The figure's head is turned to its right. To the man's left (viewer's right), on the same surface, rests another light-colored sculpture, appearing to be a draped bust or head, less clearly defined than the standing figure. The lower third of the painting is dominated by a rich, reddish-orange fabric with intricate gold or light-colored patterns, possibly a brocade or damask, draped over a surface. The man's hands and the bases of the sculptures rest on this fabric. The background is a dark, muted brown, contrasting with the figures and the patterned cloth.
