EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Jacob Holtzapffel, a renowned tool and lathe maker from the early 19th century. The image, painted with watercolors on ivory, captures his head and shoulders in exquisite detail. Holtzapffel's expertise in woodworking is evident as he stands proudly amidst a backdrop of intricate woodwork. Born in Strasbourg and later relocating to London in 1792, Holtzapffel established his mechanical and toolmaking business known as Holtzapffel & Co. by 1794. This company gained fame for producing the finest ornamental lathes of its time. As an industrious craftsman, Holtzapffel played a significant role in shaping the British industry during the Georgian era. The portrait exudes an air of regency and sophistication, reflecting both his German heritage and English influence. Measuring at just 8.9x6.7 cm, this miniature artwork preserves every fine detail of Holtzapffel's countenance. Captivatingly captured by an unknown English artist from the 19th century, this painting now resides within the David Russell Collection—an invaluable addition to any art enthusiast's repertoire. With its historical significance and artistic charm, this print serves as a testament to John Jacob Holtzapffel's contribution to industrial craftsmanship—a legacy that continues to inspire generations of woodworkers worldwide.
