This is very, very accurate! I mean, the lamp beside him, it's really gorgeus. fully detailed, as his clothes and his skin details. Very well done, very very well done!
Pretty young things are definitely a lot less work. All the texture of the wrinkled skin is tricky to do without making it look contrived, like they're wearing bad old-people make-up. Awesome job! That aside, is there something wrong with me that my favourite part of this picture is the bottle and goblet? And I don't even drink! And why are butlers always creepy old guys? I suppose a hot, young butler would expose the household to gossip. Oh, and I also like the chandelier... and the waistcoat, along with it's shiny little buttons.
