This painting shows a dark-robed figure standing inside a simple frame with two columns. The person has a pale face with a halo, holding what looks like a book or scroll. The background is mostly dark blue, and the edges of the frame are slightly worn. The figure’s face is drawn in a flat, almost stylized way, with no shadows. The writing above the head is in an old script, likely a name or title. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists create depth with lines.
