1634
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Willem de Vos is a 1634 ink by Anthony van Dyck, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of an older man with a serious expression. His face is wrinkled, and he has a thick beard and mustache. He’s wearing a ruffled collar and a dark jacket with a patterned sleeve. The artist used fine lines to show texture in his clothes and hair. The dark background makes his face stand out sharply. Next, look up etching to see how this technique works.
Sir Anthony van Dyck (; Dutch: Antoon van Dijck ; 22 March 1599 – 9 December 1641) was a Flemish Baroque artist, who became the leading court painter in England after success in the Spanish Netherlands and Italy.
