EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print, titled "John Adams, 1800-1801" showcases the remarkable talent of Charles Balthazar Julien Fevret de Saint-Memin. Created in the 19th century using white chalk heightening on off-white laid paper coated with gouache, this piece is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing both the physical likeness and essence of his subject. In this profile portrait, we see John Adams, an influential figure who served as the second President of the United States from 1797 to 1801. With meticulous detail and precision, de Saint-Memin portrays Adams' distinguished features - his strong jawline, prominent nose, and piercing gaze. The conté crayon technique adds depth and texture to every stroke. Adams' hair is elegantly styled in a manner befitting his time period. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of an important historical figure but also offers us a glimpse into early American heritage. Currently housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this painting stands as a testament to de Saint-Memin's artistic prowess and mastery. Its presence within such esteemed walls ensures that future generations can appreciate its beauty while connecting with America's rich history. As viewers engage with this stunning portrayal of John Adams by Charles Balthazar Julien Fevret de Saint-Memin, they are transported back in time to an era that shaped our nation's destiny.
