About this work

This portrait is an etching on chine collé, showcasing a man with short hair and a beard. He wears a jacket with a high collar and a buttoned-up vest underneath, adorned with a small pin or brooch. The image is rendered in fine lines, with subtle shading that adds depth to the subject's features. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate textures of the man's clothing and the delicate folds of his collar. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the subject is lost in thought.
