Kop van man met bontmuts met veer 1778

This etching, created in 1778 by Jean-Pierre Norblin de la Gourdaine (1745-1830), is a small but detailed portrait. The subject, likely a man of some importance, is depicted in profile, wearing a fur-trimmed cap with a feather. The artist's meticulous attention to detail in the rendering of the man's features and clothing creates a sense of realism and depth in this miniature work. The etching provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the late 18th century, with its focus on the man's ornate headwear.
