About the Item
Very refined and delicate oil on panel depicting a signed male portrait. The man is depicted in three-quarters, with a serene expression. He appears elegantly dressed, wearing the period's attire: a black jacket over a white shirt and a bow tie. This work is of extraordinary quality because, despite the neutral background, the artist manages to create space using a careful and precise technique, achieving detailed representations of the sitter's facial features. It retains its original frame, made of carved, oval wood and covered in gilt.
The 19th century has sometimes been called "The Century of the Portrait." From its very beginning, portraiture was associated with figures endowed with economic, social, or political power, which they wished to display and perpetuate. However, it enjoyed its golden age during the 19th century, especially during the last third, as it became a coveted form of distinction among those who could afford it. It extended to all types of techniques: painting, sculpture, medals, miniatures, watercolors, drawings, etchings, lithography, photography, and so on. Furthermore, the influence of photography and the approach of the arts toward realism led to the depiction of effigies with an ever-increasing naturalism.
