About this work

This is a portrait of a man in a dark military uniform. His collar is decorated with gold embroidery, and he wears a red-and-white medal on a ribbon. The background is a plain, faded green, keeping the focus on his face and shoulders. The gold trim on his collar looks like intricate leaf patterns, almost like vines. His expression is serious, with a slight frown. If you like this style of portrait, look up chiaroscuro next.
