Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

The image shows an upper-body portrait of a person facing the viewer with arms crossed over their chest. The individual has distinct facial features including a pronounced nose, deep-set eyes, and a wide-eyed expression. Their hair, visible from beneath a hat, is short and somewhat tousled. They are dressed in a dark, buttoned coat with a high collar. The background enhances the central figure, with text stating "MONOMANES. No. 7" above the portrait and a French description below. The artwork appears to be a lithographic print, as indicated by the signature "h. d" in the lower left.
