About this work

This painting shows a man with a halo, wearing a red robe and a white cloak. He holds a staff in his right hand. The man's face is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking down. The background of the painting is a dark color, which makes the man stand out. The style of the painting is similar to that of Lucas Cranach the Elder, After (German, 1472–1553), who was a famous artist during the Renaissance period.
