1838
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Portrait of Laman Blanchard is a 1838 by Daniel Maclise, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows a man sitting in a chair, holding a book. He's wearing a dark jacket and a lighter-colored shirt with a high collar. The background is a plain wall with a table behind him that has a plant on it. The man's hair is curly, and he's looking to the side instead of directly at the viewer. His facial expression is neutral, and his posture is relaxed. The drawing style is detailed, with lots of lines that give the image texture. If you like this style, you might want to look into the Romanticism movement.
