About this work

This painting is a portrait of a man with a ruffled collar and dark clothing. He has a mustache and is looking directly at the viewer. The background is dark, with a coat of arms visible behind the man's head. The man's clothing and the style of the painting suggest that it is from the Romantic period. The level of detail in the man's face and clothing is high, indicating that the artist was skilled at capturing realistic images. This painting is characteristic of the work of Cooper, Robert.
