Count Carl Gustaf Tessin Pendant, 1761: A Portrait of Noble Elegance and Political Power by Gustaf Lundberg This exquisite pastel on paper depicts Count Carl Gustaf Tessin (1717-1770), a prominent Swedish aristocrat, aristocrat, and politician of the 18th century. The portrait, created by renowned Swedish artist Gustaf Lundberg (1718-1786), was completed in 1761 and is now part of the esteemed collection at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden. Count Tessin's head and shoulders are depicted in a three-quarter view, with his piercing gaze fixed on the viewer. He is shown wearing an elegant, high-collared coat and a chain pendant, symbolizing his noble status and political power. The pendant, which hangs from a ribbon around his neck, features an intricately designed emblem, possibly representing his family crest or a political affiliation. The portrait, which was likely used as a pendant or a miniature, is a testament to the cultural and historical significance of the Swedish aristocracy during the 18th century. As a member of the Swedish nobility, Count Tessin played a pivotal role in the political landscape of the time, and this portrait serves as a reminder of his influence and legacy. The use of pastel on paper, a popular medium during the 18th century, adds to the delicate and refined quality of the portrait. The subtle color palette and meticulous attention to detail showcase the artistic skill and mastery of Gustaf Lundberg, making this portrait a must-see for anyone interested in the history, art, and culture of Sweden during the 18th century.
