Buste van een bebaarde man, naar links 1646 - 1670

"Buste van een bebaarde man, naar links" (Bust of a Bearded Man, Facing Left) is an etching by Hubert Quellinus, a prominent Flemish artist of the 17th century. The artwork, created between 1646 and 1670, depicts a detailed bust of a bearded man with a classic draped toga, highlighting Quellinus's mastery of portraiture and skill in capturing realistic detail. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artistic conventions of the Dutch Golden Age and demonstrates Quellinus's ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of dignity and presence.
