A Military Officer

The image depicts a portrait of a man's upper body, from the waist up. He is slightly angled to the left, with his gaze forward. The man has fair skin and a calm expression. His white hair is styled in 18th-century curls. He wears a military uniform with a black undershirt, white waistcoat, and red outer coat with gold details. A black cravat is around his neck. His right hand is inside his coat. The background is a plain, muted brown color.
