The Little Cavalier is a 1904 unspecified by George de Forest Brush, a American Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a young boy in a green coat with a bright red hat pulled low over his forehead. His hair is light and curls around his face, and he’s looking straight ahead with a serious expression. The background is dark, making his face stand out more. The boy’s coat has a small gold button near the collar, adding a touch of detail. His hat is wide and slightly tilted, giving the painting a lived-in feel. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create drama in paintings.
