About this work

This drawing shows a man in a fancy military outfit. He’s wearing a tall black hat, a green coat with gold buttons, and tall black boots. His right hand rests on a sword, and his left hand holds a pouch. The colors are bright but simple—mostly green, gold, and black. The man’s uniform looks like it’s from the 1800s. The artist paid close attention to small details, like the buttons and the way the fabric folds. Next, check out Romanticism to see how this style fits in.
