This portrait is of a man with a mustache and beard, wearing a collared shirt and vest. He is surrounded by an oval frame, which is decorated with leaves and fruit. The man's expression is serious, and his gaze is directed straight ahead. The background of the painting is a light color, which helps to highlight the subject's features. This painting is by Charles Meryon, a French artist known for his work in Impressionism and Realism.
