Description
This physionotrace by Gilles Louis Chretien is a remarkable piece of art from the early 19th century. The intricate details of the figure portrayed on paper are a testament to the talent of the artist. The physionotrace is a type of printmaking that captures the features of a person’s face and creates an accurate portrait. This particular physionotrace is small in size and was created between 1783-1811. It is an original piece and not a licensed reprint. The print surface is on paper and would make a great addition to any art collection.
