It belongs to the collection, but is not on display at present.
A study of a seated man gesticulating with his right hand and wearing a dark blue long coat, brown breeches, white cravat and a high crowned white hat with brim cocked to reveal a blue and gold underside. This work is part of an album of fifty-three sketches by Carlevarijs which includes figures he appears to have painted in the open air in preparation for insertion into formal compositions.
