Bearded Man with Turban and Young Woman

Robert Blyth, after John Hamilton Mortimer

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of two figures positioned back-to-back. The main figure is an older man with a prominent profile, featuring a strong nose, a beard, and weathered facial features. He wears a large turban adorned with a tall feather plume and richly detailed clothing. Partially visible behind him is a second figure, a young person with eyes closed and head slightly tilted, also wearing a turban with feathers. The background is textured with a circular area, and the scene is rendered in monochrome style, surrounded by a plain border with text at the bottom detailing a dedication.
