Prøveplade: Fem hoveder 1899

"Prøveplade: Fem hoveder" is an etching created in 1899 by Danish artist Frans Schwartz, who is best known for his portraiture and landscapes. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, features five distinct heads arranged across the composition. The striking use of light and shadow in the print highlights the individual features of each subject. Schwartz's signature detail in this work is the attention to capturing the subtle expressions and emotions on his subjects’ faces.
