An oil painting featuring three distinct portraits side-by-side, showcasing a progression in artistic style from expressive to realistic. On the left, a portrait rendered in the style of Fauvism, with vivid, unnatural colors like green, yellow, and red applied in bold brushstrokes. In the center, a portrait reminiscent of post-impressionism, featuring thick, textured impasto strokes, with the subject sporting a red beard and a dark cap. On the right, a highly realistic, smooth portrait of a man in a dark suit and tie, painted with fine detail and a neutral expression. The background transitions from turbulent, colorful strokes on the left and center to a serene, muted blue on the right.
