Eduard, the Artist's Infant Son is a 1842 graphite by Julius Hübner, a Romanticism work, depicting Infant, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a baby, likely the artist's son, drawn in graphite on cardboard. The baby's face is the focus, with simple lines and shading used to create a sense of depth. The artist, Hübner, drew this in the same year he was born, which is a unique fact about this work. You can learn more about this style by looking at the movement: Romanticism.
