This portrait shows a young man with dark red hair, wearing a black jacket over a white shirt and a black bow tie. The background is a solid brown color. The man's gaze is directed straight ahead, and his expression is neutral. His hair is styled in a neat, curly fashion. The painting is rendered in oil paint, which gives it a rich, textured quality. The overall effect is one of quiet dignity and reserve. To learn more about the artist who created this work, look up Franklin Rawson.
