Portret van Jean Pierre François Lamorinière c. 1880

This portrait of Jean Pierre François Lamorinière, created around 1880 by Belgian artist Jean Baptiste Pierre Michiels, is a fine example of portraiture from the late 19th century. It depicts Lamorinière in a simple pose, his face turned slightly to the side, his gaze focused on the viewer. The artist uses detailed shading to capture the texture of the sitter's beard and hair, and the subtle expression on his face. The drawing is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
