This painting shows a man's head and upper torso in profile. He's wearing a dark coat and a light cravat. The portrait is small and circular, which was a common format at the time. The man in the portrait is not identified, which makes it interesting. We can still learn about the time period by looking at his clothes and hairstyle. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de.
