"Profile Study of an Elderly Man" is a notable work by the Scottish artist John Faed, who was an influential figure in the 19th-century art scene. Born in 1819 in Burley Mill, Kirkcudbrightshire, Faed was part of a family of artists and became renowned for his detailed and evocative portraits, historical scenes, and genre paintings. His works often reflect a deep sensitivity to the human condition, capturing the subtleties of expression and the intricacies of character.

This particular piece, "Profile Study of an Elderly Man," exemplifies Faed's skill in portraiture. The painting is a study, which suggests it was likely intended as a preparatory work or an exploration of character rather than a finished, formal portrait. The subject, an elderly man, is depicted in profile, allowing Faed to focus on the contours of the face, the texture of the skin, and the expression of age and wisdom. The choice of profile view is significant as it emphasizes the man's features and provides a sense of introspection and dignity.

Faed's technique in this study is meticulous, with careful attention to detail that brings out the individuality of the subject. The use of light and shadow is particularly effective in highlighting the man's features and conveying a sense of depth. The background is kept simple, ensuring that the viewer's attention remains on the subject's face.

"Profile Study of an Elderly Man" reflects Faed's broader artistic interests and his commitment to realism and humanism. His works often convey a narrative quality, and this study is no exception, inviting viewers to ponder the life and experiences of the elderly man depicted. Faed's ability to capture the essence of his subjects has earned him a lasting place in the history of Scottish art, and this study is a testament to his enduring skill and sensitivity as an artist.
