Edward Scriven after Joseph Allen

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a seated man from the waist up. He is in a side profile in a chair, with one arm on the armrest and the other hand holding an open book on his lap. The man appears older, with deep-set eyes and a serious expression. His hair is white and styled to the sides and back. He wears formal attire, including a dark coat and a white shirt. A stack of books is on the table next to him. In the background, there is a plain wall with a curtain and some architectural details.
