About this work

This is a round portrait of a man with a thick mustache and a red hat with a black pom-pom. He’s wearing a dark coat over a light shirt, and the background is plain and dark. The frame has fancy gold carvings around the edges, and there’s a small sign above his head with Greek writing. The painting looks simple but focuses on the man’s face and clothes. The artist used soft lighting to show his features clearly. Check out Tsokos Dionysios next to see how he painted other faces.
