Description

Half-length painting of a clean-shaven man looking downward and turned three-quarters to the left; his brown hair is parted asymmetrically on his right side; he wears a dark undershirt beneath a long-sleeve plaid shirt with a pocket on one side; his hands rest near his dark trousers, which are secured by a belt; a tabletop is visible at the lower right; the undifferentiated background is rendered in strokes of mostly while, yellow, and orange, which correspond to the flesh tones of the man
