Portret van Jacques Perk 1887

This portrait of Dutch poet Jacques Perk was created in 1887 by Jan Veth, a prominent Dutch artist. The lithograph depicts Perk in profile, gazing intently at a point beyond the viewer. Veth captures Perk's melancholic expression and the poet's characteristic long hair and beard, skillfully rendered through the use of hatching and stippling. This artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection and is an important example of Veth's skill in portraiture.
