- Description
- Facial portrait of a man dressed in a parka. Only the figure's face is visible, encircled by the brown, grey and white trim of his fur jacket. The man's face is inclined to the left, and his solemn gaze is directed away from the viewer. The figure's skin is coloured red-brown with some orange and red tints blended in. The background is a light tan-grey; the figure's jacket is similar, though there are touches of yellow, as well as two strands of red.
