About this work
Seen from the chest up, a man with a mass of tight brown curls and a full beard cradles a large matte white orb under his chin with both hands, head turned to gaze tensely off to the side. He wears a loose orange peasant-style shirt with dark buttons.
Loose, confident brushwork models the flesh in warm ochre and rose tones against a cool, atmospheric grey-blue backdrop, with thick impasto catching light along the sleeves. The tight, close framing and the sitter's uneasy sideways glance give the portrait a charged, unsettled mood typical of academic figure study.
