EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor on ivory portrait depicts Johan Magnus af Nordin (1746-1823), a prominent figure in Swedish history as a governor and baron during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The painting, created by the skilled hand of Niclas Lavreince (1752-1803), known as Niclas Lavreince the Younger, captures the aristocratic elegance and refinement of the era. Johan Magnus af Nordin is dressed in the fashionable attire of the 18th century, with a vibrant red coat adorned with gold buttons and a white waistcoat and cravat. His wig, styled in the popular "Fontange" shape, adds to his regal appearance. The intricate details of his clothing are brought to life through Lavreince's masterful use of color and brushwork. The portrait is framed in a handsome metal frame, adding to its overall grandeur. Johan Magnus af Nordin's noble status is further emphasized by the ornate decorative elements on the frame, which reflect the opulence and wealth of the Swedish aristocracy during this period. This portrait, now housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Swedish aristocratic fashion and culture during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The painting not only showcases the fashion trends of the time but also provides a glimpse into the life and legacy of an important historical figure.
