Portrait of Anthony Valabrègue is a 1870 oil by Paul Cezanne, a Realism work, held at J. Paul Getty Museum.
The painting shows a man with dark hair and a beard, wearing a black jacket over a white shirt and black bow tie. The background is a muted gray color. The man's face is painted with visible brushstrokes, giving the portrait a textured look. His expression is serious, with a hint of intensity in his eyes. This portrait is a great example of the artist's skill with oil paint, and you can learn more about his techniques by looking up the artist, Paul Cézanne.
Paul Cézanne was born on January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence, the son of a hatter turned wealthy banker.
