Head of an Apostle 

This oil painting by English artist George Romney depicts a close-up portrait of an apostle. The apostle's head is tilted upward, his eyes cast toward the heavens, and his mouth slightly open, as if in prayer. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism, and the artist's use of brushstrokes creates a textured surface, contributing to the overall sense of emotion and drama. Romney was known for his portraits, particularly of women, and this piece showcases his talent for capturing the human face with depth and detail.
