This striking male portrait, attributed to Eugène Delacroix, the leading figure of French Romanticism, captures a man in a dark frock coat and checkered waistcoat, shown in a three-quarter view with his hand tucked into his garment—a pose suggesting quiet dignity. The vigorous handling of paint and the expressive rendering of the sitter's gaze reflect the emotional depth characteristic of Delacroix’s work. The neutral, loosely brushed background enhances the sitter’s presence and psychological intensity.
This painting is accompanied by a drawing signed by Delacroix, acquired on the private market, which is included in the sale.
