About this work

This painting shows a man in a loose, dark vest and a tie, holding a glass. His face is serious, with a mustache and wavy hair. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, especially on his clothes and the background. The glass he holds looks like it might be empty or nearly so. The painting feels unfinished, with some areas still sketchy. If you like this style, check out *chiaroscuro*.
