John Scott 1883

"John Scott" is an oil painting by British artist William Logsdail, completed in 1883. It is a portrait of John Scott, who is depicted in a dark, almost shadowy setting. The focus of the portrait is the subject's face and the detail shown in the features, particularly the eyes and the beard. The painting utilizes a dark palette with muted colors, suggesting a serious and contemplative tone. Logsdail's portrait is a fine example of the realism and detail characteristic of 19th-century British portraiture.
