Oliver Cromwell is a 1902 by Albert Rosenthal, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with curly hair and a mustache. He’s wearing a high-collared shirt and a dark coat with a ruffled cuff. His gaze is steady, and the lines around his face are sharp, almost sketchy. The artist focused on the folds of his clothing and the texture of his hair. The drawing looks like it was done quickly, with loose, confident strokes. If you like this style, check out chiaroscuro.
Albert Rosenthal (January 30, 1863 – December 20, 1939) was an American portrait artist, printmaker, writer, and collector from Philadelphia.
