Portrait of Patience Escalier

A bearded elderly man in a wide-brimmed straw hat and blue jacket stands against a flat yellow-orange background, his hands clasped over the top of a stick. Loose, thick brushstrokes model the face, coat and hands in blues, greens and ochres, giving the oil painting a vigorous, textured surface.

Español: Retrato de Patience Escalier, 1888

Un hombre mayor, barbudo, con un ancho sombrero de paja y chaqueta azul, está de pie frente a un fondo plano de amarillo anaranjado, con las manos entrelazadas sobre la parte superior de un bastón. Pinceladas sueltas y gruesas modelan el rostro, el abrigo y las manos en azules, verdes y ocres, dando a la pintura al óleo una superficie vigorosa y texturizada.

Português: Retrato de Patience Escalier, 1888

Um homem idoso e barbudo, usando um chapéu de palha de aba larga e uma jaqueta azul, está diante de um fundo liso amarelo-alaranjado, com as mãos cruzadas sobre o topo de uma bengala. Pinceladas soltas e espessas modelam o rosto, o casaco e as mãos em azuis, verdes e ocres, dando à pintura a óleo uma superfície vigorosa e texturizada.
