About this work

This painting shows a man, Pierre Chevallier, sitting in a room. He's a minister in Amsterdam. The interesting thing about this work is that it's based on a painting by C.H. Hodges, and there are other versions of it, like numbers 557 and 669. The artist used this copy to learn from Hodges, which is a common technique called sfumato.
