Portrait of William Brand is a 1881 oil by John George Brown, a American Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
The painting is a portrait of a man with a thick, dark beard and mustache. He is wearing a dark jacket with a high collar, and his head is turned slightly to the left. The background of the painting is a light color, which helps to highlight the subject's features. The man's facial expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking off into the distance. The overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting.
