Portrait of I.F. Doss is a 1900 oil by Ilya Savich Galkin, a Realism work, held at Hermitage Museum.
This portrait depicts a man sitting in a chair, dressed in a dark suit with a white shirt and a dark tie. His hands are clasped together in his lap. The background is a plain wall. The man's face is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich and vibrant quality. The level of detail in the painting is impressive, with the folds of the man's clothing and the texture of the chair all rendered with precision.
