A roughly defined Caucasian figure emerges from a murky background and gazes to the left of the painting, which is very dark overall. He is shown from waist up, and the top of his head brushes up against the top of the canvas. His black jacket merges with the background shadows. Beneath the jacket he wears a red vest over a white collared shirt and tie. A set of pince-nez rest above his full jowly cheeks and red bulbous nose. — Georges Rouault

Monsieur X , 1911
