Description
François de Hérain (1877–1962) – Portrait of an Oriental Man
Etching on paper. Dimensions: 37 × 29 cm. This portrait, characteristic of the early 20th-century Orientalist style, is by François de Hérain, a French painter, sculptor and engraver who spent extended periods in North Africa during the French Protectorate. The work depicts a man wearing a djellaba and turban, with meticulous detailing of the face that deliberately contrasts with the more schematic rendering of the clothing. This interplay between detail and simplicity lends depth and vibrancy to the image and forms part of the series of North African figures that the artist developed throughout his career. This lot is held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
