This work looks stunningly elegant in person with a beautiful period girl frame.
I am including a few screenshots.
One screenshot is of a painting that is somewhat like Mr. Robertson but it's hanging in the Frick Collection in New York. It's a portrait of a male sitting in a double-breasted black coat looking at the viewer
and has the same top lighting and greenish-gray background. Art History thrives on comparisons.
