About this work

This is a close-up portrait of a person’s face, shown from the shoulders up. The skin tones are warm browns, and the background is a dark, shadowy gray. The eyes are wide and dark, with thick lashes, while the lips are thin and slightly parted. The hair is short and fuzzy, blending into the dark background. The artist used bold contrasts between light and dark to shape the face. The edges are rough, almost like a sketch left unfinished. Look up Lino Eneas Spilimbergo next to see more of his work.
