Painting is a paint by Tischbein, Anton, held at German Documentation Center for Art History - Marburg Picture Index.
This painting shows a man in a dark military coat with gold buttons and a star on his chest. He’s standing straight, holding a folded paper in one hand and resting the other on a chair. The background is dark, but you can see a window with a view of trees and land outside. The man’s face is lit up, making him stand out against the shadows. His white pants and the way his coat drapes over his shoulder give it a formal, almost stiff look. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro* next.
Anton Tischbein painted quiet, detailed interiors and landscapes in the first half of the 19th century.
