About this work

This painting shows a man with a book and a coat of arms. He's sitting in a quiet space with a calm expression. The Latin poem under the image adds a layer of meaning. The artist's use of detail is interesting, especially in the coat of arms. To learn more about the artist's style, look at the work of the museum: Museum of Ethnography.
