Portrait of Fantin-Latour 1853

This etching by Félix Bracquemond, created in 1853, is a portrait of the artist Henri Fantin-Latour. The artist is depicted in a simple pose, his head and shoulders turned slightly to the right, with a focused expression on his face. The delicate lines and subtle shading of Bracquemond's etching style capture the sitter's likeness with accuracy and depth. This piece, housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, stands as a testament to Bracquemond's skill in portraying his contemporaries through the medium of etching.
