Hoofd van een man, in profiel 1720 - 1792

"Hoofd van een man, in profiel" (Head of a man, in profile) is a black and white chalk drawing by Dutch artist Aert Schouman, created between 1720 and 1792. The artwork, a detailed study of a man's profile, is a testament to Schouman's meticulous draftsmanship. The small size (73 mm x 30 mm) emphasizes the intimate nature of the portrait, focusing solely on the subject's features. This piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the artistry of the Dutch Golden Age.
