Portrait of Peter Bruckmann c. 1883

"Portrait of Peter Bruckmann" is a c. 1883 red chalk drawing by German artist Hans von Marées, currently located in the Städel Museum. The artwork features a close-up portrait of a bearded man, Peter Bruckmann, in profile, with a soft, contemplative expression. The delicate red chalk lines create a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the contours of the face and the subtle details of the subject's clothing. This portrait exemplifies Marées' mastery of drawing and his interest in capturing the individual character of his sitters.
