Good Sir

19th-century French School oil on canvas. The canvas is smooth to the touch.

A half-length profile portrait of a man in a suit with a thick gray moustache. The look is distant and the expression is serious. The tones are dark as often in commissioned portraits of the French bourgeoisie of the 19th-century. The quality of this portrait is notable upon close inspection in his skin tone, his jacket and, of course, his moustache.
