This is a portrait of a man in a dark suit and white shirt, standing against a plain brown background. His face is serious, with a thick mustache and neatly combed hair. The brushstrokes are smooth, and the lighting highlights his face while keeping the background dark. The painting looks like it was made to show the man’s face clearly, with careful attention to his features. The dark suit and simple background make him stand out. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro* next.
