Portrait of the Artist's Father is a 1907 unspecified by Unknown, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a man sitting with one hand resting on his chin. His face is round, with a mustache and a serious expression. The background is a rough, earthy color, and his clothes look simple and worn. A red cloth or object is tucked under his arm. The artist focused on the man’s face and hands, leaving the rest of the painting loose and sketchy. The colors are muted, except for that bright red spot. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth in paintings.
