Okay, I'll play contrarian this time and go against type picking B&W.

I think that this is a man of power. The pinky, blotchy skin makes  
him look weak to me. He has more strength in the B&W. The painting is  
a very nice background, but from the man's position in the frame, I'm  
guessing he's the subject, not the painting.
