About the Item

French school from the beginning of the 19th century Three-quarter bust portrait of a man Oil on panel 28 x 21 cm Circa 1820 This portrait of a man, typical of the French school of the early 19th century, presents a model with a calm and confident gaze, dressed in a dark jacket with a wide collar over a white shirt. The careful craftsmanship, the subtle play of light on the face and the neutral background emphasises the personality of the subject, in a realistic and elegant tradition specific to the artistic period in question. The whole testifies to the taste for intimate portraits, intended for the private sphere, then in vogue in French society at the end of the Empire or the beginning of the Restoration.

A young poet or artist, French Romantic period portrait of a sensitive figure
Located in Norwich, GB
You will find this young man good company! It is a pleasure to study his thoughtful, sensitive face. He has a benevolent and real presence. To my mind, he certainly has an artistic nature - he looks like a thinker, poet and/or musician. Dating from what the French call the Romantic Period, the early 1800s, our painting is monogrammed AG and may be attributed to Auguste Glaize. Born in Montpellier, Auguste Glaize studied under the painters Achille Devéria and Eugène Devéria. He came to be one of the great French Romantic painters of the early 19th century, marking his career with important history paintings and cycles of monumental religious...
