About this work

This painting shows a man in a fancy military uniform. He's wearing a dark jacket with gold designs and a red sash across his chest. He has many medals on his jacket and is holding a hat in his left hand. The man is standing in front of a dark background, which makes his uniform stand out. His face looks serious, and he's looking straight ahead. If you like this kind of painting, you might want to look up the artist, Pedro Américo.
