This image shows a man with a serious face and a dark beard. He’s wearing a blue robe over a red tunic, and his hands hold an open book with gold designs inside. Behind his head is a bright gold circle, and the background is bold colors: blue, red, and yellow borders. The book he’s holding looks like a special kind of religious text, possibly a gospel. The gold circle behind his head is called a halo, which usually means he’s a holy figure. If you like this style, check out Romanticism.
