To be honest Breezie it looks more like an old sailor/captain to me. The "goggles" could be a ribbon some sailors used to tie the top of their shirts. The jacket looks like a uniform type. The scarf blowing in the wind and the head turned gazing off into the distance is indicative of someone standing on the bridge/bow of a ship.

Just my opinion.

When I first saw this, I thought "Horatio Nelson".
