Plaster Cast of Sculpture from the Royal Portal of Chartres

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a plaster cast of a sculpture of a man. The sculpture is in a rectangular frame. The man is carved in a three-quarter view, looking to his right. He has short hair and a beard and mustache. He wears a long tunic with long sleeves. A sash crosses his chest. His right hand rests on his thigh. His left arm is bent at the elbow, and his hand is not visible. The background of the image is black, and the sculpture is lit from the left. The sculpture appears to be set against a flat background with a ledge at the top. The image is in black and white.
