You see a man's portrait from the chest up. He's looking straight at you with a calm face. The artist paid close attention to details, like the folds of his clothes and his hair. The portrait has a quiet, intimate feel to it. This might be because the artist, Saint-Mémin, was known for his detailed work. Check out the work of Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J.
