Further details

PHILIPS KONINCK, HEAD OF A MAN, PEN AND BROWN INK, BROWN WASH ON PAPER

Philips Koninck was a pupil of Rembrandt (1606-1669) who developed a strong graphic practice alongside his meticulous landscape paintings. Executed in lively, rapid strokes, the artist evidently enjoyed depicting tavern-goers and their joyful excess. The same use of wash for the shadows and irregular cross-hatching, prominent noses and dark eyes are found in other drawings (Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale de France, Arsenal, inv. Res. B-12-PET FOL and Paris, Louvre, inv. RF652; see W. Sumowski, Drawings of the Rembrandt School, Vol.6, New York, 1979, n°1334 and n°1467x respectively).

We are grateful to Martin Royalton-Kisch for confirming the attribution after a photographic examination of the drawing.
