About the Item
The self-portrait of Francis William Edmonds is a compelling depiction that offers a profound glimpse into the artist's emotion. Edmonds, known for his keen eye and detailed brushwork, captures himself with an stern gaze and an air of quiet composure.
In this artwork, Edmonds stands poised with a whip in hand, potentially symbolizing a slight power. His expression is content, perhaps reflecting on his life outside of his artistic career. The background, bright white, complements the central figure's presence, adding depth to the composition.
Edmonds' skill is evident in the texture of his garments and the lifelike quality of his features. The light, softly illuminating his face, highlights the contours and creates a sense of three-dimensionality, bringing the portrait to life. The bold colors of his garments and accessories perfectly contrasts against his more pastel and light complexion and clothing.
This self-portrait is more than a mere likeness; it is a window into the artist's world, revealing his dedication, introspection, and the quiet strength that drives his creativity. It invites viewers to connect with Edmonds on a personal level, offering a rare opportunity to see the artist as he saw himself.
Francis William Edmonds' self-portrait is a testament to his skill and the depth of his self-awareness. It is a remarkable piece that stands as both a masterful work of art and an intimate exploration of the artist's inner world.

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...
