A striking profile portrait against a geometric background of interwoven deep blues and beiges. The subject wears an ornate medieval-style helmet with decorative metalwork and a weathered patina. Dark, curling hair emerges from beneath the helmet. The armor appears battle-worn, with a rich brown leather and metal construction showing signs of use. The background is composed of a checkerboard-like pattern of squares in varying shades of navy blue and cream, creating a sense of depth and movement. A stark white vertical line cuts through the left side of the composition, adding a modern geometric element that contrasts with the classical styling of the subject. The title "Sanguine Fortitude" reflects both the determined expression and the warrior-like presentation of the figure.
