Portret de bărbat

About this work

This is a portrait of an older man with a white mustache and gray hair. He’s wearing a dark coat over a white shirt with a pin on the collar. The background is a soft mix of purples and pinks, blurry and out of focus. The brushwork is loose, especially in the background, which makes the man’s face stand out. His expression is calm but serious. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth in portraits like this one.
