A horizontally oriented etching in black ink depicts Rembrandt from the chest up. His light-skinned face, looking forward, is topped by a wide-brimmed hat that casts a dense shadow over his eyes. Fine, scribbled lines define a mustache and goatee. Framed by an intricately ruffled collar, his torso is outlined with sparse, minimalist strokes against a grainy background. The composition emphasizes the contrast between the heavily worked head and airy lower half.
