National Gallery of Art

The image shows a middle-aged man standing outdoors with one hand on a walking stick or staff. He has a round face, full cheeks, a long nose, and light-colored eyes. His hair is styled in a formal manner typical of the 18th century, possibly a powdered wig or naturally styled hair. He is dressed in formal attire with a high-collared shirt, a double-breasted coat with decorative buttons, a sash with an emblem featuring a cross and crown, and a garment with tassels around the waist. The background features a densely wooded area with large trees and foliage.
