Portrait 257B – black ink portrait on paper

Female ink drawing for sale on paper

This female ink drawing for sale is an original contemporary artwork by Dario Moschetta, created with black ink on 240 g paper.
The portrait depicts a woman in profile, with closed eyes and an upward tilt of the head, emphasizing a sense of suspension and inner focus.

Through a precise use of cross-hatching, the artist constructs volume and light without tonal gradients.
As a result, the surface of the face and neck emerges through a dense network of controlled marks, giving the drawing a strong physical presence.

Contemporary female ink portrait drawing

Signed by the artist, this female ink drawing is a unique piece intended for collectors of contemporary drawing.
The artwork is shipped flat and includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
