This is a portrait of a man in a dark military uniform with gold buttons and a red sash. His mustache is thick, and he wears a dark cap with a gold trim. The background is plain and dark, making his face stand out. The painting looks faded, with some brushstrokes visible, especially around his collar and cap. The lighting is soft, focusing on his face and shoulders. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow like this.
