Auguste Danse's 1897 etching "Portret van een onbekende man, mogelijk de Parijse ingenieur Wittman" depicts a man in a simple, but elegant, pose. The man is likely a Parisian engineer named Wittman. The artwork, which is held in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of portraiture etching using delicate lines to create a realistic depiction of the subject. The print's fine lines and detailed rendering give a sense of depth and realism. The inclusion of "Wittman" in the bottom corner suggests a possible connection to the subject.
