About this work

This painting shows a man sitting on a raised platform, dressed in bright, patterned robes. His turban is tall with a feather on top, and he holds a red object in his hand. The background is a simple green wall with a border of red and gold. The colors are bold—yellows, greens, and reds—with lots of small details on his clothes. The painting looks a bit faded in spots, but the patterns are still clear. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more paintings like this.
