The picture has something of this: people, portrait, man, wear, profile, side view, leader, veil, menswear, outerwear, lid, popularity, music, dinner jacket, neckwear.
Perhaps it’s a painting of a man with white hair wearing a brown suit and a white bow tie and looking off to the side with a serious look on his face.
