Staande militair met baard before 1889

"Staande militair met baard" (Standing soldier with a beard) is a pen and ink drawing by Dutch artist Jan Hoynck van Papendrecht, created before 1889. The drawing depicts a military man in uniform, standing with his head slightly tilted down, his prominent beard adding a touch of character. The details of the uniform are drawn with precision, capturing the texture of the fabric and the soldier's stance. This small-scale drawing showcases the artist's ability to capture both the details of a subject and convey a sense of realism through his use of line and shading. The drawing is a compelling example of the artist's style and his interest in depicting military figures.
