The Gentleman.
A gentleman of excellent tailoring, considerable composure and absolutely no need to explain himself.
Originally painted by Pompeo Batoni around 1762, this portrait has everything one expects from the grand tradition of eighteenth-century portraiture. Fine clothing, excellent posture and the unmistakable air of someone who has somewhere important to be.
Naturally, you may provide the likeness. The position is already arranged.
