The painting is a portrait of André Ernest-Modeste Grétry. It's interesting because the artist, Adam, created this work in 1824, which is a bit unusual since the artist's birth and death year are the same, 1794. This might be an error, but it's still a notable fact. You can learn more about this style by looking into the movement: Romanticism.
