Het Gezicht: oude man met bril 1679 - 1717

Abraham de Blois's etching, "Het Gezicht: oude man met bril" (1679-1717), depicts an older man seated and looking at a large, ornate goblet. He wears a simple, rustic outfit, his face partially obscured by a large, rounded hat and a pair of spectacles. A dog sits near his feet, while the setting suggests an outdoors, rural environment with a crumbling building behind the figure. The etching is a fine example of de Blois's work, which was characterized by its attention to detail and its depiction of daily life.
