This is a 19th-century copy by Christian Josi of a drawing by Rembrandt, one of the most renowned Dutch Masters, titled "Portrait of a Man in an Arm Chair." The drawing, attributed to 1634, depicts a man seated in an armchair wearing a dark coat, a white collar and a dark hat resting in his lap. The subject's pose, composition and loose, expressive linework are characteristic of Rembrandt's artistry. This copy is a testament to the lasting influence of Rembrandt's work, which continues to inspire artists centuries later.
