About the Item
The painting is the only known self-portrait by the eminent 19th century French artist Frédéric Soulacroix (1858-1933). It is signed and presented in a bespoke gold metal leaf frame.
It is not uncommon to see paintings by Frédéric Soulacroix erroneously attributed – by Sotheby’s, Christie’s, and dealers worldwide – as being the work of his father, the sculptor Charles Soularoix. As if this wasn’t irritating enough, the black and white photograph of the artist frequently reproduced online is, in fact, that of the French opera singer Gabriel Soulacroix (1851-1905).
Fortunately, we can now see the face of the real Frédéric Soulacroix in this his only known self-portrait. The painting also represents the only portrait he ever painted, Soulacroix’s body of work otherwise consisting entirely of conversation pieces populated by fictional characters in 18th century costume. This, of course, makes the current work of both historical and artistic significance.
