Close-Up Portrait of a Man at a Rainy Window

Preview - close-up - the face of an old man looking out at the rain outside the window. The old man is at the window, close-up, we see only his head, this is a side and rear view, his forehead pressed against the cool glass. The lighting is a lamp in the distance, out of frame, and we guess it by its soft, warm light; the lamp is visible in the dark window – only as a reflection, like from a mirror. A faint bluish light from the street also falls on his face, this is the twilight light of a rainy evening sky. The old man's second face is a reflection in the glass. They join together, the warm, lamp-lit face and the reflection, faint and barely noticeable in the glass. There is rain behind the glass, the silhouette of a dark apple tree is visible, and sparks are also visible on the glass – these are raindrops on the glass.
