About this work
The composition centers on a bust portrait of a stern, mustached man in period dress, his gaze turned slightly to the side; beside his head rises a tall cross bearing a small crucifix, a jeweled crown, and the hilt of a sword, all rendered in fine detail against a dark, textured background.
Worked in the dense, granular hatching typical of lithography, the print builds form through countless small marks that shift from deep charcoal shadow to pale highlights on the brow, cheek, and collar; the restrained, monochrome tonal range and precise linework give the portrait a solemn, dignified gravity.
