Object description
Against a black background is a bust-length, frontal portrait of a middle-aged man with a sad expression directed at the viewer and tousled hair beginning to grey. The man is dressed in a black robe with a dark gold patterned ribbon, a white shirt, and a black neckerchief. The shirt is adorned with a decorative pin. The portrait by an unknown artist is notable for its subtle psychological insight and skill in capturing the melancholic state of the portrayed man.
