Reflections 1885 - 1893

"Reflections" is an etching by American artist Julian Alden Weir, created between 1885 and 1893. The print depicts a close-up portrait of a woman, likely a self-portrait, with a contemplative expression and her hand resting on her chin. Weir's use of delicate lines and subtle shading creates a sense of depth and realism, characteristic of his later work. The etching showcases his mastery of the medium, capturing the essence of his subject with a refined and introspective touch. The work is an excellent example of American realism and portraiture, demonstrating Weir's ability to capture the human experience through a refined aesthetic.
