About this work

This painting shows a man, Johannes Dallaeus, sitting in a formal pose. He's dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The interesting thing about this work is that it was made after a painting by another artist, W. Vaillant, and it has a French poem written under the image, which suggests it was meant to be more than just a portrait. You can learn more about this style by looking at the technique of sfumato.
