Portrait of a Tinsmith

L. P. Greenlund & Co.

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a young man kneeling on the floor. He is holding a bucket in one hand and a soldering tool over a flame with the other. He has a serious expression on his face, looking directly at the camera. He has short dark hair under a bowler hat and wears a dark suit with a buttoned-up vest, a shirt, and striped trousers. He is surrounded by soldering tools and a soldering device. The background is a plain, neutral-toned backdrop.
