About this work

This oil painting shows a man with slicked-back dark hair in a dark jacket and white open collar, turning his gaze toward the viewer against a dark green wall. Small framed paintings hang on the wall behind him, and a vertical band of pale light from a window or doorway runs along his right side, while he holds a paintbrush at lower right.
