About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of an older man with a bald head and a white wig. He’s wearing a dark coat with high collar, looking off to the side with a serious expression. Below the portrait, two small sketches show a building with columns on the left and a church-like structure on the right. The signature reads *Albert Rosenthal*, and the date in the corner matches 1896. The artist used soft shading to show light and shadow on the man’s face.
