Description
In order to make this portrait as authentic as possible, I based it on a life mask done of Beethoven made in 1812. Since completing this image, I found it being used on a site proposing that Mr. Beethoven had black heritage. Having no knowledge of that being the case one way or the other, it worked well with that theory. Though,that was not the reasoning for my rendering him in this manner, but more as an acknowledgement of his moody personality.
