Geestelijke 1801 - 1856

"Geestelijke" (1801 - 1856) is a pen and ink drawing by Dutch artist Henricus Turken (1791 - 1856). The drawing depicts the head and shoulders of a man in a clerical robe, looking downwards with a thoughtful expression. The detailed lines and subtle shading create a sense of realism, capturing the subject's pensive demeanor. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Turken's skillful use of line and his ability to convey emotion in a simple portrait.
