Adolphus Liddell, Junior

Julia Margaret Cameron

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a person with a partial view of their upper body. The person's head is slightly turned to the side, with their gaze directed slightly downward and to the right of the frame. They have light-colored skin, a softer jawline with visible facial hair concentrated along the jaw and sideburns, and a solemn expression. Their hair is short and dark, mostly covered by a dark hat adorned with a white feather. They are dressed in dark clothing, likely a cloak or robe, as no visible shirt collar or detail is evident. There is no visible jewelry or objects held in their hand. The background is plain and dark.
