EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Young Man with a Fur Hat Holding a Staff (recto); Study of the Head of a Man with a White Collar (verso)" by Jacob Adriaensz Backer, an esteemed Dutch artist from the late 17th century. The piece, created in the late 1640s, is rendered using black and white chalk on blue paper, giving it an ethereal quality. The young man depicted in this composition exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. Donning an exquisite fur hat and holding onto a staff, he commands attention with his confident gaze. The intricate details captured by Backer's masterful strokes bring out the texture of the fur hat and highlight every contour of the subject's face. On the verso side, we are treated to another mesmerizing study - that of a man with a white collar. This delicate portrayal demonstrates Backer's skill in capturing human expressions and features. The combination of both recto and verso creates an intriguing juxtaposition between two different characters or perhaps even facets of one individual. Measuring at approximately 30.1 × 20.3 cm (11 7/8 × 8 inches), this print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate every nuance within Backer's work up close. It serves as not only a testament to his talent but also as a window into Dutch art during this period.
