Night Crier (Le crieur de nuit)

Alphonse Legros

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man from the waist up. He is facing slightly to the side with his head tilted upwards. The man has a furrowed brow, long beard, and unkempt hair. He has deep-set eyes and an intense expression. He is wearing a garment with a loose collar and appears to be holding it close to his chest with one hand, while the other hand rests below. The background is a textured surface with no discernible objects.
