Portret van Charles Howard Hodges 1841

This is a portrait of Charles Howard Hodges created by Coenraad Hamburger in 1841. The drawing, which is executed in graphite on paper, features Hodges’ head and shoulders, his face slightly turned towards the viewer. The composition is simple yet effective, capturing the sitter's likeness with a sense of realism. Hamburger was a Dutch artist known for his portraits and landscapes, and this artwork exemplifies his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The detail and craftsmanship of this small portrait (measuring 120 mm x 89 mm) are testament to Hamburger's skill as a draftsman.
