Hippolyte Flandrin (1809-1864) – Self-portrait Château de Versailles

The picture has something of this: man, people, portrait, mustache, facial hair, elderly, veil, beard, wear, lid, indoors, music, cap, eyeglasses, leader, easel.
Perhaps it’s a close up of a painting of a man with a beard and wearing a black hat and holding a large piece of wood in his right hand.
