About this work

This painting shows a man in a dark blue military uniform with gold buttons. His white mustache and hair are neatly groomed, and he wears a medal with red and yellow stripes over his chest. The background is plain and dark, keeping all focus on his face and uniform. The signature in the corner says "Heilmann," which likely means the artist was Ferdinand Heilmann. The uniform and medal suggest he held a high rank, but we can’t see any other clues about who he was. Next, look up Heilmann, Ferdinand to see what else he painted.
