A man in a dark coat stands with one hand in his pocket, looking straight ahead. His white shirt has a high collar and a patterned bow tie. Behind him, a blurry landscape shows hills and a faint sky. The painting uses soft light and shadow to shape his face and clothes. The background is barely there, keeping all focus on him. Look up chiaroscuro to see how this lighting trick works.
