Studie van een heilige met mantel en lange baard 1836 - 1843

This 19th century drawing, "Studie van een heilige met mantel en lange baard" (Study of a Saint with a Mantle and Long Beard), created by Bernard Romain Julien, depicts a solemn figure in a simple robe. The focus on the subject's face and the detailed rendering of the drapery suggest a study for a larger composition. The drawing is a testament to the artist's meticulous attention to detail and anatomical accuracy, which characterized his work. The piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable example of Julien's mastery of drawing and his interest in religious themes.
