Anders Zorn's 1909 etching "Aurore" depicts the head of Mrs. Aurore Klintberg, née Oxenstierna. Known for his masterful handling of light and shadow, Zorn employs a dynamic range of tones to capture the subtle play of light on Aurore's face, emphasizing her features and creating a sense of depth and dimension. The Art Institute of Chicago houses this striking portrait, a testament to Zorn's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects.
