Albert Gallatin

The portrait depicts a man with a receding hairline and dark, shoulder-length hair on the sides, wearing a dark-colored suit jacket, a white shirt with a high collar, and a white cravat or bow tie. The man's head is turned to his left, and he is shown in profile. The background of the painting is a dark blue color that gradually lightens towards the center. The edges of the painting appear worn and faded. Albert Gallatin, by James Sharples.
