A Man Smoking is a 1823 oil by Andrew Geddes, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
The painting depicts a man sitting in a chair, smoking a pipe. He is dressed in armor and has a sword by his side. The man is reclining, with his head tilted back and his eyes closed, as if he is relaxed and enjoying his smoke. In the background, there is another man standing behind him, holding a tray with a glass and a bottle on it. The atmosphere of the painting seems to be one of leisure and relaxation, with the two men enjoying each other's company.
