Julius Mante (Attributed), Portrait Of A Lady, Drawing

c. 1865

About the Item

An enigmatic charcoal portrait of a middle-aged lady attributed to German artist Julius Mante (1841-1907). The artist has captured an expression that's deliberately tricky to decipher. What do you see? Strength? Shyness? Regret? It's plausible that Mante completed this work during his training at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich. The portrait is signed in the lower right and housed within a good later frame. Our aim is to price fairly from the start and continually evolve the collection. Around 40 new discoveries are added every month. If you have any questions at all, we’d love to hear from you.

  • French 19th Century Romantic Period 1830s Parisian Lady Portrait Madame Seguin
    By Adele Grasset
    Located in Norwich, GB
    A stunning portrait of a Parisian beauty from the romantic period by Adele Grasset (active ca 1830-1850). With her intelligent eyes and determined look, doesn't this lady bear great resemblance to Chopin's paramour George Sand? The sitter is Jeanne Marie Vidal, wife of Claude Auguste Seguin, from a prominent family in Avignon, as the family tree attached to the back for the frame indicates. Research in old annals has also revealed that Madame Seguin was a modern and independent lady: she worked in lady's fashion in Paris, and patented wrapping mechanism that protected lady's hats during their transport! As often with woman artists of the 18th and 19th century, there is little biographical information available on the artist, Adèle Grasset. We do know however, that she had studied with the highly prominent artist François Gérard (1770-1837) , known also as the Baron Gérard...
