A Fortune-Teller Reading the Palm of a Soldier
An oil painting in dark, warm tones shows an elderly man in a red hood and round spectacles grasping the outstretched hand of a bearded soldier in a white turban and dark armour. The soldier gazes sideways with a serious expression, and the close framing presses the two heads together against a shadowy background.
