The work captures the artist in a beret, a common accessory for painters of the period, rendered with a focus on structural clarity rather than atmospheric effect. The choice of sanguine chalk on a warm, toned paper provides a consistent tonal range, allowing the artist to build volume through subtle hatching and cross-hatching techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is tightly cropped, focusing entirely on the facial features and the drape of the clothing around the neck. Van Teeseling employs a measured line quality, avoiding excessive flourish to maintain a sense of direct observation. The gaze is steady and contemplative, typical of the introspective nature often found in mid-twentieth-century self-portraiture. The artist's signature and the date are visible in the lower right corner, confirming the work's provenance within his personal archive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a study, this piece offers insight into the technical proficiency of Van Teeseling during the early 1940s. The use of red chalk, a medium with a long history in European drawing, allows for a soft transition between light and shadow. The artist balances the weight of the beret against the softer folds of the collar, creating a stable, balanced image. This print captures the texture of the original paper and the specific hue of the chalk, providing an accurate representation of the artist's hand.

Executed in graphite, the work demonstrates the artist's focus on structural form and tonal modelling. The composition is tight, framing the head and shoulders to ensure the viewer's attention remains fixed on the subject's features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVan Teeseling employs a methodical approach to shading, using the graphite to build volume across the cheekbones, nose, and jawline. The eyes are rendered with particular care, capturing a steady, contemplative gaze that defines the character of the piece. The hair is suggested through broader, directional strokes, providing a contrast to the finer detail found in the facial features. The collar of the shirt is sketched with minimal lines, serving as a simple anchor for the head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated during the early 1940s, the drawing reflects a period of introspection common in portraiture of the era. The artist avoids unnecessary ornamentation, preferring to rely on the interplay of light and shadow to define the planes of the face. The paper surface remains largely untouched, which allows the graphite marks to stand out with clarity. This work provides an insight into the artist's technical process and his ability to capture a likeness through disciplined observation. The signature and date, located in the lower left corner, confirm the provenance and the specific moment of the work's creation.

A small note, bearing the inscription 'C.G. van Teesling B-1-1 21-2-42', is pinned or tucked into the folds of the cloth, providing a specific temporal and personal context to the work.
