A man in a dark suit and white shirt sits facing us. His jacket has a red pin on the lapel, and one cuff is rolled up to show a white wristband. The background is a plain, muted gray, with a faint glow on his face. This painting was made in 1934 by Alexandru Popp, who focused on capturing faces with soft lighting. Look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow to shape portraits.
