"Fred" is a 1998 painting by American artist Eric Fischl. This portrait, painted in a photorealistic style, depicts an older, seated man with a contemplative expression. Fischl's use of light and shadow creates a stark contrast between the man and the dark background, emphasizing the subject's isolation and introspection. This work, characteristic of Fischl's artistic output, explores themes of aging, mortality, and the human condition.
