This painting is a self-portrait of a man with dark, curly hair. He is wearing a black jacket with a red sash draped over his left shoulder. The background of the painting is a cityscape with a body of water and mountains in the distance. The man's facial expression is neutral, and he is looking directly at the viewer. His hair is styled in a fashionable manner, and his clothing suggests that he is a member of the upper class. The painting is done in oil paint and features a realistic style. The artist's use of color and light creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting. Look up Sándor Kozina next.
