Gentleman in Large Mantle, Seen from Behind

Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two depictions of a person drawn from behind, capturing their full-length body. The person is standing with legs slightly apart, wearing attire typical of a certain historical period. They have medium-length, wavy hair partially covered by a plumed hat. The person is wearing a large, draped cape or cloak over loose-fitting trousers tied at the knees with bows. One figure carries an umbrella or walking stick. The background of the image is plain, emphasizing the figures.
