Male portrait representing an old man, with only the face facing left emerging from the darkness. The painting is attributed to Pier Francesco Guala (1698-1757), an Italian painter whose style is characterised by a synthesis of Lombard, Genoese and Venetian influences, which he was able to adapt with a personal touch. His works often feature bold colours and original interpretations of religious and mythological themes.
