Gezicht van een oude man 1859 - 1933

"Gezicht van een oude man" is a 19th-century etching by Elias Stark, a Dutch artist who was born in 1849 and died in 1933. The etching, which depicts the face of an elderly man, is a masterful example of Stark's detailed style, with a strong contrast of light and dark. The small size of the artwork, 102 mm by 70 mm, emphasizes the intimacy of the subject and creates a sense of close observation. It can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands.
