This lithograph, "Portret van Ary Scheffer", created in 1840 by the Belgian artist Émile Lassalle (1813-1871), is a portrait of the Dutch painter Ary Scheffer. It depicts Scheffer seated with a palette and brushes in his hand, thoughtfully gazing to the side, perhaps lost in contemplation of his next artistic endeavor. This print showcases Lassalle's meticulous attention to detail and the use of tonal variations to create a sense of depth and realism. The portrait, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the life and work of a significant figure in 19th-century European art.
