Portrait of a Man

Baron Louis-Adolphe Humbert de Molard

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man from the waist up, seated with his head resting on his right hand. He has short, curly hair and is dressed in a loose-fitting coat and shirt with a high collar. The man has a determined expression with intense eyes, a prominent forehead, and is gazing directly at the viewer. There are no visible objects or jewelry in the image. The background is dark and plain.
