Henry Woods is a 1802 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a portrait of Henry Woods, an American corporal. He's dressed in uniform and looks straight ahead. The artist used a lot of detail to draw his face and clothes. The small size of the portrait is interesting. It measures only 5.56 × 5.56 cm, which is very tiny. This suggests the artist was skilled at working with small details. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de.
