James Currie

Charles B. J. Févret de Saint-Mémin

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man in profile facing right. He has detailed facial features, with a prominent nose and thick eyebrows. His curly hair is neatly styled, crossing over his ears. He wears a dark coat with a high collar, a light-colored frilled shirt collar, and a tied cravat. The background is a neutral-toned circular frame. Below the portrait, "James Gozzie" is written in an old-style script on a sepia-toned strip.
