Portrait of an old Man

Bust of Rabbi with luxuriant white beard wearing a plain black coat and tall black cap. The background is dark-gray. The hair and beard are exquisite, obtained with very fine brushes and textured use of white paint. The psychological study of the face is also unusually high quality.
