About this work
An older man with a full white beard and moustache sits facing forward, gripping a pipe in his teeth with one raised hand. He wears dark sunglasses and a black beret, a black-and-white striped shirt, and has a heavy dark naval jacket with brass buttons and a shoulder patch draped loosely over one arm and shoulder. His other hand rests on his knee.
Neutral grey tones fill the background, letting the black, white, and warm flesh contrasts carry the composition. Thick, confident strokes build the beard's texture and the jacket's heavy folds, and the direct pose and dark glasses give the figure a weathered, self-assured presence.
