This painting shows a man in a red coat with gold trim, standing next to a dog on a leash. He's holding a black hat in his left hand and has a sword at his side. The background is dark, with some lighter areas that might be water or sky. The man's face is serious, and he's looking straight ahead. The dog is sitting up and looking at him. The man's clothes are fancy, with lots of buttons and gold trim. The artist who painted this is Francisco Goya.
