John D. Rockefeller 1917

This portrait of John D. Rockefeller, painted in 1917 by American artist John Singer Sargent, depicts the renowned industrialist in a seated pose. Sargent, known for his mastery of portraiture and his ability to capture the essence of his sitters, has rendered Rockefeller with a realistic yet dignified air. The painting's rich, dark background contrasts with the subject's light clothing and highlights the subtle details of his face and hands, which are rendered with incredible detail.
