Zelfportret: B-1-1, 25 april Possibly 1942 - 1944

This self-portrait, created by Dutch artist Cor van Teeseling in pencil, is a powerful example of realism. Executed in 1942-1944, shortly before Teeseling's untimely death, it displays the artist's keen observation of detail, evident in the delicate shading that renders the contours of his face and the subtle variations in his skin tone. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a poignant testament to Teeseling's artistic talent and his life tragically cut short.
