Seated Man

Original French portrait: French School of the 19th century oil on canvas depicting a seated man.
This dynamic canvas has a nuanced and realistic light that reflects over the seated man, almost as though he is under a street late or stage light. The man himself wears worker's clothes, and his face seems to look amused. The pearly copper brown background amplifies the play of light on the sitter's face. This painting is worked with precision, illuminating the skin hues and disappearing the dark worker's shirt into the natural shadows. The golden frame brings a sophistication to the work, making it easy to imagine this painting as a hero piece on an empty wall or entryway.
