Beeldbeschrijving
The image shows an upper-body portrait of a man facing forward with his body tilted slightly to the left. He wears a brown coat over a teal waistcoat and a white ruffled shirt is visible at the cuffs and neckline. The man has high cheekbones, a straight nose, and a serious expression. His dark hair is styled in large, slightly curled side parts. The man is set against a plain, muted green background, emphasizing the subject of the portrait.
