Buste van een man 1775 - 1833

"Buste van een man" is a charcoal drawing on paper by Dutch artist Jean Bernard, dating from 1775 to 1833. The artwork depicts a bust portrait of an unidentified man, likely a contemporary of the artist. Bernard's meticulous rendering of the man's features, particularly his beard and the folds of his collar, exemplifies the skill and attention to detail characteristic of Neoclassical portraiture. This drawing is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam.
