EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Portrait of the Duc de Choiseul" by Giovanni Paolo Pannini, dating back to approximately 1757. The portrait measures 26.7x17.8 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Johnny van Haeften Gallery in London, UK. The image depicts a distinguished gentleman, believed to be the Duc de Choiseul himself, adorned in an elaborate wig and a regal sash. His piercing gaze captures both power and intellect, reflecting his prominent position within society during that era. This artwork serves as a sketch for the renowned Gallery of Ancient Rome project undertaken by Pannini. It offers us a glimpse into his meticulous process as he meticulously planned out this grand endeavor. Pannini was an Italian artist known for his exceptional talent in architectural painting and capturing historical scenes with remarkable precision. In this particular piece, he masterfully combines portraiture with elements of classical architecture to create a harmonious composition that exudes elegance. As we admire this print today, we are transported back to the opulence of 18th-century Europe and given insight into the life of one of its influential figures. This exquisite portrayal not only highlights Pannini's artistic prowess but also provides us with a valuable window into history itself.
