Brief Description

A seated man in a black hat and white collar holds a pipe, looking forward

Detailed Description

A three-quarter length portrait depicts a man seated against a plain, dark brown background. He is turned slightly to his right, with his head angled towards the viewer. He has light skin, a reddish complexion on his cheeks, a light brown mustache, and a small goatee. His wavy, light brown hair is visible beneath a wide-brimmed black hat. He wears a large, flat white collar over a dark, possibly black, coat. Gold or brown patterned fabric is visible on the sleeves of his inner garment, and white cuffs extend from his wrists. His right hand rests on the carved wooden armrest of a chair, while his left hand holds a long, slender, dark object, possibly a pipe, near his chest. A ring with a dark stone is visible on his left pinky finger.
