Zsigmond Szinyei Merse Smoking a Chibouk is a 1866 oil by Pál Szinyei Merse, a Realism work, held at Hungarian National Gallery.
This painting shows a man in profile, wearing a red hat and a dark jacket. He's holding a long, thin pipe called a chibouk in his right hand. The background is dark, which makes the man stand out. The man's face is turned to the side, so we can't see his features clearly. He's wearing a white shirt under his jacket, and his hat has a black band around it. The overall mood of the painting is quiet and thoughtful. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who painted this, you might want to look up Pál Szinyei Merse.
