This painting shows a man in profile, wearing a high-collared garment and a dark coat. He has a white cravat on. The portrait is very small, only 5.56 × 5.56 cm. This portrait is interesting because it's made with a lot of detail, even though it's tiny. The artist used simple lines to create the man's face and clothes.
