E.D. Adams, 3rd plate 

This is a self-portrait etching by Alphonse Legros, a prominent French artist known for his work in the realist style. The artwork's detailed, hatched lines create a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing the subject's features and the artist's technical skill. Legros's signature is prominently displayed at the bottom of the etching, adding a personal touch to the piece. This self-portrait is a fascinating example of Legros's artistic style and his ability to capture the essence of a person through subtle, expressive lines.
