Edward Carter is a 1805 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man with wide eyes and curly hair, dressed in a coat with broad lapels. He looks very serious, and the details in his face are carefully done. The artist used a lot of lines to create texture and depth in the portrait. You can learn more about this kind of detailed work by looking into the technique of engraving.
