Zelfportret en face met pet: B-1-1, 26 januari Possibly 1942

This self-portrait in pencil, created by Dutch artist Cor van Teeseling in 1942, depicts the artist with a somber expression wearing a beret. The simple composition and realistic depiction of his features highlight van Teeseling's artistic talent. The drawing, part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, is a poignant reminder of van Teeseling’s short life, as the artist tragically passed away in November of the same year. This self-portrait is a compelling example of van Teeseling’s artistic practice, showcasing his skill in capturing likeness and emotion.
