About this work

The painting features a man dressed in a black coat with a high collar, adorned with gold buttons and a matching gold patterned shirt underneath. He holds a sword in his right hand, with the hilt facing upwards. The background of the painting is dark, with a hint of green on the right side. The man's attire and the sword suggest a sense of formality and importance. The dark background helps to focus attention on the subject. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Philip de László, who was known for his portraits of prominent figures.
