You see a small portrait of Thomas Rodman. He's looking straight at you. The artist used a lot of detail to draw his face and clothes. The portrait is very small, only 5.56 cm wide. It was made using a special technique that involves scratching lines on a metal plate. This technique helps create lots of shading and texture. Check out the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de.
