About this work

This image shows a man with a dark beard and serious face. He’s wearing a blue robe and holding two large keys in one hand. Behind his head is a golden circle with writing on it, and the background is bright red with a blue border. The keys and the golden circle suggest this might be a religious figure. The style looks old, with flat colors and simple shapes. Look up halo to see how artists use them in religious paintings.
