General James Wilkinson is a 1900 by Max Rosenthal, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This black-and-white portrait shows a bald man in his 60s or 70s. He’s wearing a dark military jacket with gold buttons and epaulettes on his shoulders. His hands rest near his chest, and his expression is serious but calm. The artist used deep shadows and soft lighting to shape his face, giving it a three-dimensional look. The signature at the bottom says *Max Rosenthal*, so this is his work. If you like this style, check out chiaroscuro next—it’s the technique used here.
