Max Klinger is a 1894 by Hubert von Herkomer, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a dark, fuzzy portrait of a man with curly hair and a beard. His face is mostly shadow, but you can make out his eyes and mouth. The background is almost black, making his features stand out a little. The artist used a printing method called *Herkomergravure*—a mix of etching and engraving—to create this grainy, textured look. The dark tones and rough edges give it a mysterious feel. Look up Herkomer, Hubert von to see more of his work in this style.
