About this work
A bald, elderly man with a thick grey-white beard stands close to the picture plane, one arm raised out toward the left edge, the other hand resting near his chest. He wears a loose pale shirt or robe that stands out against a chaotic dark backdrop of loose, scraped brushwork.
Warm ochres and browns model the weathered face and hands, set off by the near-black ground behind him. Thick, dragged impasto and a single strong light source on the forehead and beard lend the figure a worn, dignified gravity.
