EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait depicts Giuseppe Balsamo, better known as Count Alessandro Cagliostro, a charismatic figure of the 18th century European occult scene. Born in Sicily in 1743, Balsamo claimed to be a magician, alchemist, and clairvoyant, gaining a significant following throughout Europe. In this stunning bust sculpture by renowned French artist Jean-Antoine Houdon, created around 1786, Cagliostro is captured in his prime, exuding an air of mystery and intrigue. The plaster sculpture, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcases the masterful skill of Houdon, who expertly conveys the subtle textures and contours of Cagliostro's face and the intricate details of his clothing. The portrait offers a glimpse into the enigmatic world of this controversial figure, whose legacy continues to fascinate scholars and enthusiasts of the occult and European history. This work of art stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the unknown and the power of human curiosity.
