Portrait of Professor Beloborodov 1922

Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin's "Portrait of Professor Beloborodov," a 1922 charcoal drawing, is a striking example of the artist's expressive style. The work captures the professor's thoughtful gaze and distinguished features with striking realism, while the use of shading and bold lines adds depth and dimension to the composition. The piece, likely created during a period of artistic experimentation for Petrov-Vodkin, showcases the artist's mastery of portraiture and his ability to convey individual personality through a simple yet powerful medium.
