George Augustus Baker Jr.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A portrait painting of a man with dark hair and a beard. He wears a black suit jacket and vest with a white collared shirt and black bowtie. The man looks to the right of the image with a neutral expression. The background is a mottled brown color, with darker shades on the left and lighter on the right. The overall appearance suggests an oil painting in a realistic style.
