Executed in graphite on paper, the drawing relies on a series of measured, delicate lines to define the subject's features. Breur-Hibma focuses on the structural elements of the face, using light shading to suggest the contours of the cheeks, the depth of the eyes, and the texture of the hair. The artist avoids unnecessary ornamentation, allowing the character of the sitter to emerge through the economy of the mark-making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreur-Hibma, who was active during the mid-twentieth century, often produced work that prioritised human observation. This sketch demonstrates her ability to record a likeness with precision and empathy. The paper tone provides a neutral ground, which allows the grey graphite tones to sit clearly on the surface. The composition is cropped closely to the head and shoulders, ensuring the viewer's attention remains fixed on the expression of the sitter. The lines around the mouth and eyes suggest a life lived, rendered without sentimentality or excessive stylisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a study, the work offers insight into the artist's process. The visible construction lines and the varying pressure of the pencil indicate a thoughtful approach to portraiture. It is a quiet, grounded piece that reflects the artist's interest in the people within her immediate environment. The lack of a complex background ensures that the focus remains entirely on the individual, presenting a candid and honest representation of the subject. This print preserves the subtle gradations of the original graphite, capturing the texture of the paper and the soft quality of the pencil strokes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/portrait-of-franz-hanfstaengl-franz-hanfstaengl\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Franz Hanfstaengl - Franz Hanfstaengl — Franz Hanfstaengl\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/zelfportret-b-1-1-31-januari-cor-van-teeseling\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eZelfportret: B-1-1, 31 januari - Cor van Teeseling — Cor van Teeseling\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aat Breur-Hibma","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58513164927311,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58513171251535,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58513171284303,"sku":null,"price":180.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58513171317071,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58513171349839,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58513171382607,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58513171415375,"sku":null,"price":560.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58513171448143,"sku":null,"price":560.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58513171480911,"sku":null,"price":560.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58513171513679,"sku":null,"price":570.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58513171546447,"sku":null,"price":570.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Moeke-Speksnijder-Marie-Speksnijder-Backhausen-uit-Rotterdam_Poster_CompositorV1_1786454886113.jpg?v=1787119869","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/en-nz\/products\/moeke-speksnijder-marie-speksnijder-backhausen-uit-rotterdam-aat-breur-hibma","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
