Man with Bagpipes

25 × 19 cm (9.8 × 7.5 in)
31 x 26 cm (12.2 x 10.2 in)
This refined 18th-century portrait depicts a young man dressed in a striking red coat, his gaze turned gently to the side, holding a set of bagpipes with both poise and ease. The instrument, rarely featured in German portraiture of the period, introduces a rustic, musical element that contrasts beautifully with the sitter’s composed elegance and richly detailed attire.
The painting reflects the influence of Johann Heinrich Tischbein the Elder, a leading figure of German Rococo portraiture, known for his sophisticated compositions and soft modelling. While the artist remains unidentified, the work clearly aligns with Tischbein’s stylistic sphere, though it lacks the polished idealisation typical of his hand. Instead, it offers a more direct and expressive treatment—particularly in its vivid coloration, strong facial modelling, and textural contrasts—which lends the portrait an engaging and characterful presence.
Nonetheless, the painting displays a sensitive rendering of fabric, gesture, and mood, all hallmarks of mid-18th-century German portraiture. It captures a moment of quiet theatricality, blending genre elements with a courtly sensibility. While the artist remains unknown, the work stands as a compelling example of Tischbein’s stylistic legacy as it extended beyond his own hand.
