About this work

This painting shows a man in profile, wearing a dark hat and a thick fur collar. His face is lit from the side, with shadows deepening his wrinkles and jawline. The background is a dark blue, almost black, while his scarf and sleeves glow in yellow and orange. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, especially on his coat and the background. This makes the colors pop and feel almost textured. If you like this style, look up impasto.
