This antique charcoal portrait on paper from the early 1900s is truly breathtaking. Unlike many pieces of this age, which often show signs of fading, wear, and neglect, this portrait stands out for its remarkable preservation. The jet-black atmosphere, contrasted with subtle hues of ochre, creates a composition that is both ominous and poetic.
Though the artist remains unknown, the mastery of technique and the profound emotional depth captured in this piece suggest it belongs to the rich history of portraiture in art. The condition is exceptional, with very minimal signs of wear, making it a truly exemplary piece that would be a prized addition to any collection.
Please note this piece comes framed as shown. Custom options available upon request.
Material: charcoal, paper
Size: 19 1/2" x 23 1/2"
