Dr. Philemon Tracy

Amerikanische Malerei 1790–1801, ca. 1790

The image shows a portrait of a man depicted from the waist up. He is seated in a chair, with his body turned slightly to the right and his gaze directed forward. The man's facial features are distinct with a fair complexion, large dark eyes, and a straight nose. His hair is short and appears gray, with a slight part on one side. He is wearing a dark coat with white buttons, a blue waistcoat, a white shirt with a white cravat. He has one hand on his lap, while the other hand holds a letter or document. The background features a room with green vine and red flower wallpaper, and blue drapes. A window behind him shows a glimpse of a tree and water, suggesting an interior setting with an outside view.
