EDITORS COMMENTS
This profile portrait, created by the renowned French artist and bibliographer Baron Vivant Denon in 1816, features the distinguished pair of printers Jacques Charles Brunet and Charles Philibert Lasteyrie. The image captures the gentlemen in formal attire, with Brunet wearing a high collar and Lasteyrie sporting a more casual, open collar. The intricate details of their clothing, from the textured fabric to the carefully arranged folds, are beautifully rendered in the photograph. Baron Vivant Denon, a prolific artist and art historian, was a significant figure in the French art scene during the 19th century. He served as the first director of the Louvre Museum and was instrumental in documenting the art and antiquities of Egypt during Napoleon's campaigns. Jacques Charles Brunet and Charles Philibert Lasteyrie were prominent printers in France during this period. Brunet was the founder of the famous publishing house, Maison Brunet, which produced numerous works on art and literature. Lasteyrie, a count, was also a successful printer and publisher, known for his high-quality editions of classical texts. This portrait, now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, offers a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the time, as well as a testament to the skill and artistry of Baron Vivant Denon. The image invites us to reflect on the important role that printers and publishers played in the dissemination of knowledge and the preservation of artistic and literary heritage.
