About this work

This painting shows a man sitting on a bright yellow cushion. He’s wearing a green robe covered in small gold dots, a white turban, and a light beard. Behind him, the background is a faded blue with some scribbled marks. The edges of the painting have a red border and a thin yellow line. The man’s relaxed pose and the simple colors make it feel calm. The painting looks old, with some wear on the edges. If you like this style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
