拍品描述
Portrait Attr. Jean Paul Laurens (1838 - 1921):
Jean Paul Laurens was a French painter and sculptor and one of the last involved in the French Academic Style. "He was a pupil of Léon Cogniet and Alexandre Bida. Strongly anti-clerical and republican, his work was often on historical and religious themes, through which he sought to convey a message of opposition to monarchical and clerical oppression. His erudition and technical mastery were much admired in his time, but in later years his highly realistic technique, coupled to a theatrical mise-en-scène, came to be regarded by some art-historians as overly didactic. More recently, however, his work has been re-evaluated as an important and original renewal of history painting, a genre of painting that was in decline during Laurens' lifetime." (Via Wikipedia). The portrait is painted on linen and is of a gentleman with a mustache and mutton chops. His arms are crossed revealing a starched shirt cuff with gold cufflinks. He has a pocket handkerchief and a notched lapel. The gentleman is standing in front of art nouveau style wall paper of birds and flowers. Academically painted with convincing skin tones and a steady blue/gray gaze from the subject. Although we do not know the sitter's identity, he is clearly a serious man of property. The frame is elaborate and heavy in gold leaf, wood, and plaster. It has scrolling leaves and flowers. Stamped by a Parisian company logo on the back. Provenance: local estate.
Painting 26" X 21 1/2" Frame - 33 1/4" X 37 1/2"
