About this work

This painting shows a man in a dark suit and white shirt, looking slightly off to the side. His tie is loosened, and the brushstrokes on his face and hair are loose and textured. The background is mostly black, making his features stand out. The artist used thick paint in some spots, especially on his hair and collar, giving it a rough, almost sculpted look. This makes the face pop against the dark background. Try looking up *impasto* to see how artists use thick paint like this.
