Man met een muts met bontrand en profile 1623 - 1676

This etching by François Chauveau, dating from 1623 to 1676, depicts a man in profile wearing a feathered cap. The intricate details of the man's curly hair and the textured fur of the cap showcase the artist's masterful command of the etching technique. The small size of the artwork, measuring only 52 mm in height and 36 mm in width, suggests it was likely intended for a personal collection or as a study. The portrait is an example of the "petit format" style popular in 17th century France, focusing on intimate details and a sense of realism.
