Jacques André Joseph Aved

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a man with long, curly white hair sitting at a desk. He wears a gray coat with gold embroidery and wide cuffs, and a white shirt with lace cuffs. His right hand holds an object near an open book on the desk, while his left hand rests on his knee. The desk has a green cloth, a candleholder with a white candle and a feather quill, and other objects. He sits on a red chair with gold accents. The background features a dark wall with a lighter-colored design.
