Alexander Brown is a 1848 oil by Walter Libbey, a Realism work, held at Brooklyn Museum.
This is a portrait of a man, likely in his 20s or 30s, with dark hair and a serious expression. He is wearing a dark jacket with a white collar and a dark bow tie. The background is white, with some visible brushstrokes. The man's face is rendered in fine detail, with a subtle gradient of skin tones. His eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer, giving the impression of a sense of calmness and composure. You can find more paintings like this by visiting the Brooklyn Museum.
