About this work

A young man in a tricorn hat, red coat, and white stockings sits on a stone bench in a sunlit courtyard, absorbed in a small book held in both hands. The warm light falls across the pale stone wall, with a potted plant and shuttered window behind him. This painting by Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier is held in the Wikimedia Commons collection.
