VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a monochromatic portrait of a man, presented in an oval frame within the artwork. The subject appears to be from the 19th century judging by his attire and hairstyle. He has combed-back hair, prominent sideburns, and is wearing formal attire including a high-collared shirt and cravat. His expression is stern or contemplative with deep-set eyes gazing directly at the viewer, giving an impression of seriousness and introspection.
The image carries text which indicates that it may be part of a series or collection ("Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers") and includes the name "James Nasmyth", possibly identifying the depicted individual as James Nasmyth, who was known for being a Scottish engineer and inventor famous for his development of the steam hammer.
Below the portrait are inscriptions likely denoting publication details such as place (Paris), publisher's or printer's name (possibly abbreviated), indicating it could be from an academic journal or book about notable historical figures in technology or engineering. The overall presentation suggests this print was made to honor James Nasmyth’s contributions to industry and mechanics.
