EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, created by Johan Abraham Aleander in the late 18th century, depicts a commander wearing the grand cross of the Order of the Sword (Ordre de l'Épée). The chivalric order, established in 1730, was a prestigious Swedish organization dedicated to the promotion of justice and the defense of the church. The commander's formal attire is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the era. The commander is shown in a full-length portrait, wearing a long, double-breasted coat with lapels, fastened by a sash around the waist. Breeches, held up by a buckled belt, are visible beneath the coat. The grand cross of the Order of the Sword, a large, ornate cross adorned with swords and topped with a golden Maltese cross, hangs around his neck. A tall, feathered hat, known as a tricorn, sits atop his head, completing the formal ensemble. The print, created using the aquatint etching technique, showcases intricate details in the commander's attire, from the delicate lettering on the sash to the intricately designed hilt of the sword. The image, with its bold contrasts and sharp lines, transports us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the time. This magnificent print, a work of art in its own right, is a valuable addition to any art collection or historical exhibit, providing a window into the world of chivalry, law, and fashion of the past.
