A British gentleman at his 30s – the age of maturity, passion and charm – this may be the first impression of Mr. Knightly for anyone who have seen him.
The slightly fading hairline and the forehead wrinkles tell the years he has went through. However, with the firmly-chiselled chin and nose contrasting with the romantic expression in the deep-set eyes, strength and elegance are revealed simultaneously on him. He smiles warmly, with his eyebrows playfully raising like a crescent moon and his eyes shining, however, also with his lips pressed together, a sign of good manner. Moreover, the tan complexion shows that he is healthy and energetic.
Then the delicate dresses and manners confirm the guesses about Mr. Knightly further. He is garbed in a black velvet coat and ivory-color silk tie, common for a gentleman in 1800s Britain. His well-bred, comfortable face and graceful stance add to that.
