Hoofd van oude man met baard 1645 - 1694

"Hoofd van oude man met baard" is a 17th century etching by Dutch artist Dirck de Bray. The print, measuring only 52 mm in height and 43 mm in width, depicts a close-up portrait of an elderly man's head, with detailed rendering of his wrinkles and beard. The expressive use of light and shadow, typical of etching, emphasizes the subject's age and the deep lines of his face. The piece offers a glimpse into de Bray's mastery of the technique and his keen observation of human features.
