About the Item

A contemplative young traveler reclines amid rocky cliffs and distant architecture—his attire and gaze evoking the cultivated introspection of the Grand Tour. The composition recalls the manner of Pompeo Batoni, François-Xavier Fabre, and Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein, whose portraits of elite sitters blended classical gravitas with Romantic sensibility. Comparable works by Fabre in the Musée Fabre, Montpellier, reflect the same fusion of aristocratic portraiture and Italianate landscape seen here. Framed in giltwood grandeur, this painting captures leisure, learning, and landscape as social currency. Original Empire giltwood frame Dimensions: 104 x 105 cm, framed 123 x 124 cm
