Portret van Jules Chéret 1895

This black and white portrait, created in 1895 by an anonymous artist, depicts Jules Chéret, a well-known French artist who popularized lithographic posters. Chéret is depicted in a relaxed pose, seated on a chair with his legs crossed and holding a cane in his right hand. The portrait, measuring 105 mm in height and 74 mm in width, captures Chéret's distinctive style and artistic personality. The background features a glimpse of Chéret's studio, with a visible canvas and a drum, possibly hinting at his artistic practice. The use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to the portrait.
