EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history, showcasing the work of Louis-Francois Roubilliac, an esteemed French rococo sculptor. The photograph was taken in 1830 by an unknown artist and is part of the collection "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard. In this image, we see Roubilliac dressed in a stylish coat with an open collar and a hat perched on his head. His gaze is directed upwards, perhaps contemplating his next artistic creation or seeking inspiration from above. The attention to detail in his clothing reflects both his refined taste and the fashion trends of the time. Roubilliac's significance as an artist is further emphasized by mentioning that he was commissioned by Henry Cheere for a series of busts at Trinity College, Dublin. Additionally, he worked as a modeller at the prestigious Chelsea porcelain factory. These accomplishments highlight Roubilliac's talent and reputation within both academic and commercial circles. The print not only provides us with insight into Roubilliac's appearance but also offers glimpses into 18th-century art history. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural exchange between France and England during this period. Overall, this portrait transports us back in time to appreciate the skill and influence of Louis-Francois Roubilliac while shedding light on the artistic landscape of 18th-century Europe.
