Edme-Sebastien Jeaurat is a 1759 ink by Pierre Francois Martenasie, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with curly white hair tied back. He’s wearing a fancy wig with curls framing his face. The background is plain, but his outfit looks formal, with a high collar and a bow at the neck. The name "Jeaurat" is written below the portrait, and the artist’s signature says it was made in 1759. The image is an engraving, which means it was carved into metal and printed. Next, check out etching to see how this kind of print was made.
