Description
In Sebastián Martínez y Pérez, Francisco de Goya shows the sitter turned toward the viewer while holding a sheet of paper. His striped blue coat and bright yellow breeches stand out against a restrained, dark background.
The chair and crossed legs give the pose a relaxed structure, while the white neckcloth draws attention toward his face. Fine changes in light describe the sheen of the coat and the soft modeling of his features. The paper introduces a second point of interest, connecting the sitter’s hand with the lower half of the composition.
