EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the youthful charm of Ary Scheffer, the renowned French painter, as a child around the turn of the 19th century. Painted by his father, Johann Bernhard Scheffer, the oil on canvas work showcases the young Scheffer sitting comfortably in a wooden chair, dressed in the fashion of the time. The intricately designed collar of his shirt, with its vibrant color and open neckline, adds a touch of elegance to his simple yet stylish attire. The painting, which is now part of the collection at the Musée de la Vie Romantique in Paris, offers a rare glimpse into the heritage and history of the Scheffer family. Born in Germany in 1798, Ary Scheffer was the son of Jean-Baptiste Scheffer, a successful painter in his own right, and his wife, Elisabeth. The family later moved to France, where Ary would go on to become a leading figure of the Romantic movement in art. This early portrait not only serves as a testament to the artistic legacy of the Scheffer family but also offers a fascinating glimpse into the clothing and furniture of the time. The painting's rich colors and intricate details make it a valuable addition to any collection of historic art and a reminder of the enduring influence of the Romantic era on art and fashion.
