Zelfportret van Henri Dillens 1841 - 1842

Henri Dillens’s "Zelfportret van Henri Dillens" is a self-portrait, a classic subject in art history. This small etching, measuring only 45 mm by 40 mm, shows a close-up view of the artist’s face with a detailed rendering of his beard and mustache. The artwork captures a sense of realism, with sharp lines and careful hatching, and is typical of the 19th-century realist style. The image is currently part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
