Self-portrait

Oval-shaped portrait painting of a man with light-colored hair, blue eyes, and rosy cheeks. He wears a dark-colored jacket with a white shirt featuring a high collar and decorative buttons. A blue and white ascot or cravat is tied around his neck. The subject looks directly at the viewer. The painting is set against a gray background and framed in a thin, gold-colored metal oval with a small loop at the top. The image shows the painting on a plain white surface.
