Girolamo da Siena

Daniel Hopfer

National Gallery of Art

The image shows the upper half of a man's body in a profile view, facing to the right. He is positioned with his head turned to the side, displaying his facial features prominently. The man has a distinct facial structure featuring a prominent nose and a textured beard. His hair is curly and voluminous, covering his head fully. He is depicted wearing a draped garment that covers his shoulders and chest, with the texture of the fabric rendered in intricate detail. His hand is raised to his chest, and his fingers are elegantly positioned. There is no visible jewelry or objects he is holding. The background is plain with some artistic shading, and there is text present in the image that identifies the person.
