About this work

This is a close-up portrait of a man with dark hair and a serious expression. He’s wearing a dark suit and a light-colored shirt, looking slightly to the side. The background is a flat, pale blue oval with a bold yellow text bubble at the bottom. The text reads *"Richard Barthelmess in 'The Noose'"*, suggesting this was a movie poster. The style is simple but striking, with thick brushstrokes and a limited color palette. Check out tempera next—it’s the paint used here, made from pigment mixed with egg yolk.
