John Bill Ricketts

Amerikanische Malerei 1790–1801, 1795/1799

The artwork depicts a portrait of a man from the shoulders up, facing forward. He has curly gray hair and a fair complexion with a slightly flushed face. He is wearing a white high-collared garment. The background is an unfinished canvas, with rough, sketchy outlines in brown suggesting a horse's body and head around him, but only the man's face and upper garment are fully detailed. The canvas has a raw, textured appearance, with visible brushstrokes and sketches on the left side.
