B. Ferrand is a 1810 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man's profile and a two-story building. The profile is detailed, and the building is simple. It's interesting that the artist used a small scale, measuring only 5.72 × 5.72 cm, to create a detailed portrait and a building. The artist's attention to detail is notable, and to learn more about this style, look up the technique: engraving.
Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin (French pronunciation: ; 1770–1852) was a French portrait painter and museum director.
