EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Henri De Gallon, 1819" is a remarkable piece of art created by the renowned artist John James Audubon. Executed in chalk and pastel on paper, this delicate artwork measures 28.6x22.2 cm and currently resides in the esteemed collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The subject of this portrait is Henri De Gallon, an elderly man whose profile is beautifully captured by Audubon's skilled hand. Wearing a nightcap that adds a touch of vulnerability to his appearance, De Gallon exudes wisdom and experience through his weathered features. Audubon's attention to detail shines through as he masterfully captures every wrinkle and contour on De Gallon's face. The use of chalk and pastel creates softness and depth, enhancing the realism of this stunning portrayal. This artwork not only showcases Audubon's technical prowess but also serves as a testament to his ability to capture human emotion within his subjects. Through subtle nuances such as the tilt of De Gallon's head or the intensity in his eyes, Audubon invites viewers into an intimate connection with this elderly gentleman from centuries ago. As we gaze upon "Henri De Gallon, 1819" we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever on paper—a testament to both Audubon's artistic genius and our shared humanity across generations.
