Self Portrait

Oil on wood by Miles de Montmorency. Self-Portrait. 1912

The painting depicts a man from the shoulders up, looking straight at the viewer. He is wearing a white collared overcoat with a large round white button and a dark tie and shirt underneath. The hair is neatly combed to the side and tucked behind the ears. The background is nondescript and muted in colour, providing no additional context about the setting. There is a wooden board situated in the bottom area of the painting.
