About this work

This painting shows a man with a serious face and a beard. He’s wearing bright red robes with black and yellow stripes, and a gold collar. Around his head are red flowers with green leaves, like a crown. The man holds a small book in one hand and makes a blessing gesture with the other. The background is plain, but the flowers stand out with their bold colors. Look up *festoon* to see how these flower designs were used in other art.
