Kop van een visser met snor 1923

"Kop van een visser met snor" (Head of a Fisherman with Mustache), a 1923 woodcut by French artist Jean Émile Laboureur, depicts a close-up portrait of a fisherman. The simplified forms and bold colors characteristic of the artist's style are evident, particularly in the striking use of blue and green. The stylized representation of the fisherman's face, highlighted by the thick black lines of his mustache, adds a sense of graphic intensity to the piece. Laboureur was known for his woodcuts, and this work exemplifies his mastery of the medium and its ability to capture both the essence and the visual impact of a subject.
