This painting shows a person holding a pipe, dressed in a dark, patchy coat with a white collar. Their face is blurred but you can still see the pipe in their mouth and a faint smile. The background is a messy mix of browns and grays, like a rough sketch. The paint looks thick and uneven, almost like it was slapped on quickly. The person’s face is hard to make out, but the pipe is the clearest part of the image. If you like this style, look up impasto.
