Harrison Gray

Amerikanische Malerei 1770–1790, ca. 1767

The artwork is a portrait depicting a man from the waist up seated against a dark green background. He is positioned slightly turned to his right, facing the viewer. The man has a rounded face, slightly arched eyebrows, and a hint of a smile. His hair is white, voluminous, and styled in a traditional 18th-century fashion. He is dressed in a rich brown coat adorned with large gold buttons, and a white shirt with ruffled cuffs peeks out at the wrists. He holds a quill in his right hand and a piece of paper in his left. The background is simple, enhancing the focus on the subject.
