Artist, Spanish, 1746 - 1828

The image depicts a seated man seen from head to feet, in a slightly hunched posture with his head tilted downwards. His facial features are in shadow, but it's visible that he has a full beard and dark hair. He wears a loose, long-sleeved garment and pants, both appearing slightly rumpled. Metal shackles are seen around his legs, indicating restraint. The background shows a dimly-lit room with a textured surface, possibly representing a brick or stone wall.
