Portrait of the Artist's Mother 

Oskar Stossel's "Portrait of the Artist's Mother" is a striking etching that depicts the artist's mother in a close-up view, emphasizing her wrinkled face and weary expression. The dark tones of the etching contrast sharply with the light background, creating a sense of depth and adding to the portrait's overall sense of melancholy. The work is a testament to Stossel's skill as a printmaker, showcasing his ability to capture emotion and detail through the subtle variations of light and shadow.
