EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print depicts Gédéon Berbier du Metz, a prominent financier from Flanders, Belgium, during the 17th and 18th centuries. The portrait, created by the skilled engraver Gerard Edelinck, captures the subject's distinguished appearance and air of authority. Berbier du Metz is shown wearing an elegant, high-collared coat and a fur-trimmed cape, signifying his wealth and status. His piercing gaze and serious expression convey a sense of determination and focus. Born in France but of Flemish descent, Berbier du Metz rose to prominence in the financial world, becoming the Comte de Rosnay. He was known for his shrewd business acumen and played a significant role in the financial administration of the French monarchy. This oval-shaped engraving, with its intricate details and striking contrast between white and black, is a testament to the artistic skill of Gerard Edelinck and the enduring legacy of Gédéon Berbier du Metz. This rare and valuable print is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and intrigue visitors from around the world. The portrait serves as a reminder of the rich artistic and historical heritage of Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries, and the fascinating lives of the individuals who shaped the course of history.
