Sir Andrew Mitchell Torrance (1846–1909) John Collier (1850-1934)

The picture has something of this: portrait, people, man, leader, facial hair, business, administration, outfit, wear, chair, indoors, mustache, politician, intelligence, music, confidence, bald, writer.
Perhaps it’s a painting of a man in a suit and tie sitting in a chair and holding a piece of paper in one hand and a book in the other hand.
