Intriguing oil painting on canvas, depicting the portrait of an artist, dressed according to the fashion of the time.
Exquisite details of the collar which, folded, create a dynamic effect, like the back fold of the dress.
The fancy green bow is painted excellently, magnificently rendering the luminosity of the knotted silk.
Finally, the blue of the background makes a good contrast with the painter's hat and the slightly mocking, and magnetic, gaze, follows the viewer, involving him in the work itself.
Period: late 18th century - early 19th century.
Painter from the Swiss-German area.
Dimensions without frame: 63.5 cm x 54.5 cm
