This print shows a man in robes holding a book and quill. His face is calm, the folds of his clothes soft. The light hits his face while the background stays dark, making him stand out. This trick is called chiaroscuro, where artists use strong light and shadow to add drama. Look up this same artist next: Keilhau, Eberhart (atelier).
