William Lloyd Garrison is a 1845 oil by William Page, a american_impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting is a portrait of a man with a balding head and thin-rimmed glasses. He is wearing a dark suit jacket over a white shirt and black tie. His right hand is resting on a table or chair in front of him. The man's expression is serious, and he is looking directly at the viewer. The background of the painting is a muted brown color, which helps to focus attention on the subject. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting, drawing the viewer's eye to the subject's face and hands.
