About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with a serious face. He has wavy hair, a mustache, and a beard. His collar is ruffled, and he’s wearing a dark, textured coat. The artist used lines to show light and shadow, making the face look three-dimensional. This style fits the Baroque period. Look up etching to see how artists like this made detailed prints.
