Honoré Fragonard is a 1806 ink by Charles Le Carpentier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking older man with curly hair. He’s wearing a high-collar coat and sits behind a ledge covered in flowers. The name "HONORE FRAGONARD" is carved into the ledge below him. The artist used a sharp, detailed style to show the man’s face and the delicate leaves. This kind of printmaking was popular in the early 1800s. Check out the technique: etching to see how artists create fine lines like these.
