Portrait of Meyer Heine is a 1864 by Félix Bracquemond, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows an older man with a full white beard and deep wrinkles, sitting in a chair. He wears a dark coat and looks off to the side, his hands resting on his lap. Behind him, a window opens to a bare tree and a dark forest, drawn in fine, sketchy lines. The title says *Dernière Réflexion* (Last Reflection), and the artist signed it in the corner. The mix of sharp lines and soft shading makes the face stand out against the rougher background. Check out Félix Bracquemond to see how he blended etching and drawing.
Félix Henri Bracquemond (French pronunciation: ; 22 May 1833 – 29 October 1914) was a French painter, etcher, and printmaker.
