Hakman

Hakman is represented in this archive by a single sheet, Head of a Man Wearing a Turban, executed in crayon manner engraving printed in brown ink. That technique, which mimics the soft grain of chalk drawing, places the work within the reproductive print culture of the eighteenth century, where engravers translated the texture of drawings into print. The collection's holding is limited to this one impression, so the artist's wider output and biography remain undocumented here.
