Sir Frederick Pollock 1897

"Sir Frederick Pollock" is a portrait etching by British artist Sir William Rothenstein, created in 1897. This work is a sensitive depiction of Frederick Pollock, a renowned jurist and legal scholar. Rothenstein's signature style is evident in the loose, expressive lines and the subtle shading, which bring out the sitter's character and personality. The etching captures Pollock in a contemplative mood, with his gaze directed away from the viewer, suggesting a man lost in thought. This intimate portrayal is a testament to Rothenstein's skill as a portraitist, and his ability to convey a sense of individuality through his art.
