Visual Description
A well-dressed man sits facing the viewer wearing a dark blue cloak, a triangular hat, a ruffled collar, and bright yellow knee-high boots. Nine elaborately decorated cups stand behind and around him on different levels, many showing black circular patterns. The background is a flat horizon of sea and sky with muted blues and greys. The man holds his hands near his lap and looks relaxed, as if pleased with the arrangement of cups.
