This print titled "Study of a Head, c1893" by Mortimer L Menpes takes us back to the 19th century. The image showcases a side view of an elderly man with a striking beard and a majestic headdress or turban adorning his head. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate lines that define every feature of this mesmerizing portrait. The subject's profile reveals wisdom and character etched onto his face, while his piercing eyes seem to hold countless stories from years gone by.
