Eastern Patriarch is a 1803 by James Barry, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a man with long hair and a beard, wearing a robe. He's sitting with his head in his hand, looking down. The background is dark, with some lines that might be a landscape. The man's face and hair are detailed, but the rest of the painting is more sketchy. The dark background makes the man stand out. This painting is by James Barry, an artist known for his Romantic style.
James Barry (11 October 1741 – 22 February 1806) was an Irish painter, best remembered for his six-part series of paintings entitled The Progress of Human Culture in the Great Room of the Royal Society of Arts in London.
