"Bärtiger Mann sitzend nach rechts, die Rechte auf die Brust gelegt" is a charcoal drawing by Dutch Golden Age painter Gabriel Metsu. The drawing depicts a bearded man in a seated pose, with his right hand resting on his chest, a gesture that suggests contemplation or prayer. The work is a study in the careful observation of human form and posture, characteristic of Metsu's skill as a draftsman. It is now housed in the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany. This drawing provides a glimpse into the artist's process and his ability to capture a sense of character and emotion through line and shading.
