DescriptionPortrait of a young boy dress as an alter boy. The boy is white with brown eyes and brown, tight, curly hair. He is wearing a surplice with a red plus sign in a red box design around the hem and the edge of the sleeves. Underneath his tunic he is wearing a black shirt. He is standing (painted from the waist up), facing and looking to the left, and holding a bible open in his hands. The background is a mix of blues mostly in the top half and reds in the bottom half. On the left are some directional lines coming in creating a light source shining on the boy. There are some faint yellow crosses in the background to the left of his face. The boy is slightly off center and more to the right of the canvas. Signed "Ben F Scott", vertically and in red along the left bottom side.
