This is a portrait etching of Sir Charles Holroyd, created by the French artist Alphonse Legros, who was born in 1837 and died in 1911. The artist has captured Holroyd in a simple yet expressive way, showing him in profile with his gaze turned slightly downward. The use of etching allows for a range of tonal values, highlighting the details of Holroyd's features, from his hair to the fabric of his clothing. This artwork is a prime example of Legros's mastery of etching and his talent for capturing the essence of his subjects.
