About this work

This oil painting by Edmund Charles Tarbell, dated 1921, shows a man in a dark suit, white collar and blue necktie standing before a dark background while holding a folded paper in one hand. The sitter's direct gaze and the dim, warm lighting focus attention on the face and the paper resting on a desk at the right.
