Description | Three-quarter length portrait. The man is portrayed as a venerable bearded figure whose furrowed brow befits the philosopher. The left hand is tensely clasped around the end of his hood, the right pressing firmly on a book lying on the table. The scarlet of his gown is set off to a good effect by the plain background. |
