Man in a Great Coat

Amerikanische Grafik 1765–1814, 18th century

The image depicts a man's upper body viewed from a three-quarter angle, from the chest up. He is portrayed in a slightly angled, forward-facing position with his head turned slightly to his left. His facial features include eyes, a nose, and lips. His hair is styled in a classical fashion, brushed back from the forehead. He is dressed in a dark coat with wide lapels and shiny buttons, a white high-collared shirt, and a cravat tied around his neck. The background is simple and textured with a muted tone that complements the drawing's sepia tones.
