Volwassen man met snor 1802

This etching, created in 1802 by Dutch artist Jan Chalon, depicts a close-up portrait of a man with a mustache. The artwork utilizes hatching and cross-hatching to create a sense of depth and texture in the sitter's face and clothing, exemplifying the artist's skill in this technique. The portrait's small dimensions, 75 mm by 62 mm, suggest its intimate and personal nature. This portrait showcases Chalon's artistry in capturing the subtleties of human expression, a testament to the Dutch tradition of portraiture.
