About this work

This painting shows a man in a red coat with white trim, holding a gold key in his right hand. He wears a tall, pointed hat and has on yellow pants, blue stockings, and black shoes with buckles. The man's shadow is cast on a wall behind him. The man's outfit and key suggest he might be a royal doorkeeper, given the title "Kongelig dørvogter." The painting's style, with its attention to detail and use of color, is typical of the Romanticism movement.
