About this work

This painting shows a man in a dark coat and light shirt, wearing a tie and a flat cap. He holds a pipe in one hand and looks off to the side with a serious expression. The background is a cool blue, almost like a shadowy wall. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, especially on his coat and cap, giving the painting a rough, almost sculpted look. This style makes the man’s face stand out more. If you like this style, look up impasto.
