Portret van een onbekende man 1811 - 1849

This is a portrait of an unknown man created between 1811 and 1849 by Dutch artist Maria Geertruida de Goeje-Barbiers. The drawing is a close-up of the man's face and torso, capturing the details of his attire and facial features. It depicts the man in a three-quarter view, looking directly at the viewer, a common style used for portraits in the early 19th century, depicting the sitter in a realistic manner. The drawing is done in pencil and is a great example of de Goeje-Barbiers' talent for depicting lifelike figures.
