Self-portrait in a fur cap bust 1630

Rembrandt van Rijn's "Self-portrait in a fur cap bust" from 1630 is a powerful etching that captures the artist's expressive gaze and the subtle details of his features. The hatching and cross-hatching techniques used in this etching create a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the fur of the cap and the fabric of his clothing. The artist's signature, "R. v. R. 1630," adds a personal touch to the work, and it is a testament to his skill as both a draftsman and printmaker.
