Portret van Ernest Alexandre Honoré Coquelin 1840 - 1890

This portrait of Ernest Alexandre Honoré Coquelin, a famous French actor, was created by Alphonse Descaves sometime between 1840 and 1890. Coquelin is depicted in profile, wearing a dark cap and a coat, with a slight smile on his face. The work is a fine example of a portrait drawing and the delicate use of shading highlights Coquelin's features. Descaves was a French artist known for his drawings and lithographs, making this artwork a valuable piece of historical portraiture.
