EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century watercolor on ivory portrays Jean-Baptiste Jacques Augustin (1759-1832), a renowned French painter and miniaturist. The portrait, created around 1780 by the Swedish artist Okand Konstnar (pseudonym for Johan Christian Friedrich Höckh), showcases Augustin as a young man in his prime. The circular composition, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, invites a direct gaze into the subject's soulful eyes. The artist's skillful use of watercolor on ivory lends an ethereal quality to the image, making it a precious addition to the annals of historic portraiture. Augustin, dressed in the attire of a painter, holds a palette and brush, signifying his occupation. The round shape of the portrait, which was a popular format for miniatures during this era, adds to its intimate and personal nature. This exquisite self-portrait is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the 18th century and serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of its creators. Housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, this masterpiece continues to inspire and captivate audiences, offering a glimpse into the life of a talented artist from a bygone era.
