About this work

This painting depicts a man in elaborate armor, holding a staff in his right hand. He wears a dark blue tunic with gold accents and a halo above his head. To his right stands a young boy in a yellow tunic, and at his feet is a small white dog. The man's armor is intricately detailed, with a red skirt and a gold belt. The background of the painting is a warm, textured gold. The level of detail in the armor and the use of tempera as the medium suggest a high level of craftsmanship.
