This portrait shows a man with a long white beard and a black hat. He's wearing a black robe with a high collar. The background is dark, with a red curtain behind him. The man's face is serious, and he's looking straight ahead. His beard is long and white, and it's curled up at the ends. The painting is done in oil paint, and it's quite detailed.
