Antonio Vassilacchi

Italienische Grafik 1779–1810, 1789

The portrait shows a man from the chest up, turned slightly to his left but looking directly at the viewer. He has a defined facial structure with arched eyebrows, deep-set eyes, and a prominent nose. His hair is dark and short with a slight wave, and he has a full, neatly trimmed beard and mustache. He wears a dark jacket with a white collar. The background is a muted earthy tone with a subtle gradient that highlights the subject's face. The name "Antonio Vassilacchi" is inscribed below the portrait, along with additional notations.
