Portret van de schilder Johannes Antonius Verschaeren 1812 - 1861

This pencil drawing by Jacobus Everhardus Josephus van den Berg, titled "Portret van de schilder Johannes Antonius Verschaeren," depicts a portrait of the Dutch painter Johannes Antonius Verschaeren. The drawing, created between 1812 and 1861, shows Verschaeren in profile, with his head turned slightly to the right. The artist captures the sitter's features with a delicate touch, emphasizing the lines of his face and the texture of his hair. This piece is a striking example of van den Berg's mastery of portraiture and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects in a simple yet expressive manner.
