The background of this portrait is painted in dark hues… the brushstrokes indicate that the artist has hurriedly covered the white canvas… The focal point, the monk has been painted with great care, each fold of the robe, the expressions on the face carefully illustrated. A bright hue of crimson red is adorned by the monk. His face, painted in shades of gray and black, as a ritual… This piece of painting gives the audience a sense of curiosity. Can we fathom what is going in his mind? Can we read his expressions? It is a beautiful work of art
