EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait showcases Jacques-Albert Berthélemy (1745-1813), a renowned lawyer in the parliament of Paris and curator of the archives of the Sovereign Order of Malta at the Grand Priory of France. The portrait, created in the 18th century, is an exquisite example of the fashion and apparel of the time. Berthélemy is depicted wearing a richly textured, velvet coat in a deep red hue, the color of power and prestige during this era. The coat is adorned with intricate gold braid and buttons, adding to its grandeur. His crisp white shirt and neckcloth contrast sharply with the dark coat, highlighting the attention to detail in the clothing. The portrait is an oval-shaped oil painting, framed in an ornate gold frame, typical of the period. Berthélemy is depicted looking away from the viewer, a common convention in formal portraits of the time. The artist has skillfully captured the subtle play of light and shadow on the textiles, bringing the portrait to life. This portrait is a precious addition to the collection of the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, one of the city's most esteemed museums, showcasing the rich heritage and history of France. The portrait provides a glimpse into the political and social landscape of 18th century Paris, a time of change and transformation. The clothing and accessories worn by Berthélemy reflect the status and wealth of the wearer, making this portrait a fascinating study of fashion and history.
