About the piece
Created by French artist Alfred Philippe Roll around 1882, this striking portrait titled 'Miner's Head' is a powerful example of 19th-century social realism. The work features a masterful use of impasto and a muted, earthy palette that highlights the weathered texture of the subject's face and his direct, contemplative gaze.
