Hendrick Goltzius, a prominent Dutch Renaissance artist, created a powerful drawing entitled "Kopf eines alten Mannes im Dreiviertelprofil nach links" (Head of an Old Man in Three-Quarter Profile to the Left). The drawing features a detailed depiction of an elderly man's face, showcasing his age through the use of meticulous hatching and shading. The strong chiaroscuro effect creates a sense of depth and realism. Goltzius's mastery of drawing is evident in the expressive portrayal of the man's wrinkles and beard. The artist's attention to detail brings a human touch to the subject, making the drawing a captivating example of his artistic skill. This drawing, currently held in the Städel Museum, is a testament to Goltzius's ability to capture the essence of human form through his artistic mastery.
