There's something natural in ellegance and also something ellegant in naturality.
Maybe it has something to do with the inner peace built as the years gone by and the capacity of wearing comfortable clothes not minding about whatever people would or should or could say.
Don't you think?
He looks like he escaped into the future from a Renaissance painting. What a beautiful face.
Nice Job capturing the dark of his clothes with the very light wall and the character of his face.
You are turning into a good photographer Sart.
This is the best portrait I've ever seen from you. The expression on the man's face is extraordinary. And the negative space of his jacket opening, which shows the white sweater underneath, I love that.
Timeless
What a beautiful picture!
Another fine painting...
Painterly!
So beautiful...like the Mona Lisa it makes me wonder...
Every face can tell a story... especially the mouth part of the face...
Simply wonderful!
i would like to give this man a hug.
Brilliant photo, not for the fashion aspect but for the portraiture and study of human face.
You are getting too artsy fartsy, dude!! :-))
He is beautiful, so beautiful.
i agree with resplendato - you are turning into a good photographer. you captured an essence there.
I LOVE THIS BLOG!!!!!! and, of course, I love YOU!!!!! You are GREAT!!!!
A fantastic picture.Nobody knows where is the style...
wow. now THIS is art. i love it.
By far favorite picture I have seen!
Wow, you took up painting, Sart.
Honestly, you should expand outside of just fashion photos and create an 'interesting look' site.
And I should register so I am no longer anonymous!
Great image.
Love it
I listed you as a Destination on my blog

In my humble opinion, what gives this lovely man his fabulous look is the De Niro-type frown on his face. How he wears his mouth.
Love this blog.
Best regards, Staffan
Hi,
I really like your blog in general.(imho, it really stands out). The photographs are good, the people captured display great taste, and they are depicted in a sympathetic way. (Btw, I found you blog via the blog of Thomas Mahon, Savile Row.)
Greetings,

Very nice shot! Very nice man. He looks "Florence" , authentic I mean.
He is Lorenzo De Medici!
I totally agree with Regina's blog.It is that truism that "trying to hard", just doesn't work. This guy just looks great and I am quite sure he doesn't give it much thought. Regina you're right - there is something "elegant in naturality". I like that comment!
This is gorgeous.
Inimitable.
I'm reflecting on how you might have approached him and the conversation that ensued...
His face breaks my heart.
Such an extraordinary portrait! Thank you for this timeless photograph that captures a wealth of emotion from within the framework of this face. Simply exquisite.
I can comment on the light, the beauty of the colours, the wonderful contours. I completely understand the feeling of this somehow being transposed Medici portrait. I can't ever touch upon that face, and I think that's even saying too much.
Which I guess is what makes you a wonderful photographer. It's so gratifying to know that there is someone out there who recognizes, connects, gets "it". You can't be praised enough.
What a face. And what a beautiful portrait. Bravo.

Great photo, really seems to capture the mood.
Well done!
I love this photo, Sart. The feelings within me are ambivalent. The photo saddens me but I find it so beautiful! Beautiful face, and i love his color.
this man's face is mesmerizing. look at all the life etched in those lines.
For a moment I thought this photo was taken in Breton. What a striking and timeles image. One to be studied at length.

i wish i knew him.
i'm glad you didn't post any words with his portait. his face is all that's necessary.
He has many stories under his hat and under his jacket,this is why this is a great picture and why his clothing...fits.
Simply ..WOW.. I swear i can almost feel the weather, the smell and feel the rhythm of the places being reported here ..that's what a sincere photograph do ..
He is beautiful; time and character have molded him. The coat defines him in the present. I love it!
Amazing picture.
this is beautiful.
Is he about to smile or cry? I guess time molds emotions together..
Oh I love this! There is something so poignant in the images of older people. Something in their faces, that makes you wonder what they have been through and what they know. I love his hat and his coat. But mostly I am drawn to this image because of the way his face has been captured! This is lovely!
This photograph makes my heart explode.
My God, I just wanna hug him.
so much character in this man. beautiful picture
Oh, looks just like my granpa :)
You love him?
Well, go to any little village in France, Italy, Spain or Portugal and you will get thousands like this one.
i was looking through the "favorites" section and found this. such a quintessentially beautiful face.reminds me of all the relatives i've never met.
i took a photo of a man in london who looks quite similar....
bellissimo
I agree with victor..:)I am from croatia and you can find thousands grandpas like him here :)
...but i must say, this is realy good photograph :)
Great portrait. I'm obviously late to comment, but it truly is.
I hope I age with this photogenic of a face. Timeless.
