caption: The image shows a self-portrait of a man in a suit and tie, painted in oil on canvas by Edgar Degas. The man is standing in front of a wooden object, with text at the bottom of the painting. He is wearing a black suit with a white shirt and a black tie, and has a serious expression on his face. His hair is dark and his eyes are focused intently on something in the distance. The painting is done in a realistic style, with the man's facial features and clothing rendered in great detail.
