Beul met zwaard 1844 - 1896

"Beul met zwaard" is a 19th century etching created by Dutch artist Willem de Famars Testas (1834-1896), this artwork features a single, solitary figure, a man dressed in medieval clothing, standing on a platform with a sword, against a backdrop of a cityscape. He holds his sword in his left hand and rests his right hand on his cheek, appearing lost in thought. The artist used a delicate line work style to emphasize the loneliness of the figure and the somber atmosphere of the scene, creating a haunting image of a warrior facing a moment of reflection and uncertainty.
