Saint Peter holding a key

A painting of a bald, bearded older man in a brown cloak, seen in profile looking upward and left. He holds a large iron key in his raised right hand against a dark, warm-toned background. The soft modeling and somber palette suggest an early nineteenth-century religious portrait.
