Hatred or Jealousy, plate 20 from "Heads Representing the Various Pass

An engraved plate shows a man's head in three-quarter view, brows drawn low and lips pressed into a sneer, with wild curling hair and a heavy neck. A caption above reads Hatred or Jealousy, and a printed explanatory passage runs along the bottom. Fine hatching models the face in reddish-brown ink on cream paper.

Look closer: Small printed explanatory text runs along the bottom edge beneath the figure.
