Ammi Phillips

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white portrait of a man. The man has light-colored hair that is slicked back. He is wearing a dark jacket with a high collar that folds over, a white collared shirt with a bowtie. The man is facing to the right with his body and slightly turned towards the viewer. The man's right arm is resting on a railing or ledge, his hand hanging over the side. The background is solid black. The portrait style and clothing indicate it is from the 19th century. The title of the portrait is Thomas Storm, and the artist is Ammi Phillips.
