EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the renowned artist and sculptor, Grinling Gibbons, captured in oil on canvas by Godfrey Kneller around 1690. The painting measures 125x90 cm and is currently housed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. Grinling Gibbons, born on April 4th, 1648 and passing away on August 3rd, 1721, was a Dutch-British talent celebrated for his exceptional wood carving skills. His masterpieces can be found across England's most iconic landmarks such as St Pauls Cathedral, Blenheim Palace, and Hampton Court Palace. In this remarkable portrayal of Gibbons' likeness, we see him depicted with an air of distinction and expertise. The traditional dress he wears reflects the fashion of his time while his meticulously styled hair adds to his overall elegance. The bust sculpture displayed alongside him serves as a testament to his incredible craftsmanship. It symbolizes the tools that were instrumental in bringing life to countless wooden creations under Gibbons' skilled hands. This artwork not only pays homage to one of history's greatest wood carvers but also captures the essence of baroque aesthetics prevalent during that era. With its rich colors and attention to detail, this print allows us a glimpse into both the artistic mastery of Grinling Gibbons himself and the cultural milieu he thrived within.
