About this work

This painting shows a man in a dark hat and coat, with a blue bow tie. His face is pale with light brushstrokes, and the background is a mix of soft pinks and greens. The edges of his hat and collar are dark, while his skin and shirt stand out lighter. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, especially on the hat and background. This gives the painting a rough, textured look, like the artist worked quickly. Next, look up impasto to see how this technique works.
