This painting shows a bearded man with long hair wearing a red robe and a blue tunic. He’s raising one hand with two fingers pointed up, while his other hand rests on a round, dark object. The background is a faded gold, and the edges of the frame are decorated with leaves and small flowers. The man’s face glows slightly, with a golden halo behind his head. His expression is calm, almost serious, and the colors stand out against the worn gold. Look up chiaroscuro next to see how light and shadow create depth in paintings.
