You see a man in a black suit and white cravat. He's looking straight at you. The artist used a lot of detail to make the suit look real. The man in the picture is James A. Buchanan. He was painted by Charles B. J. Févret de Saint-Mémin in 1804. The painting is special because it's a mezzotint, which is a type of print. Check out the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J.
