EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century oil painting, titled "The Italian Dwarf Giacomo Favorchi Attending the Elector of Saxony with the dog Raro," is a masterpiece by Dutch artists Abraham Wuchters and Karel van Mander III. The painting, which dates between 1663 and 1666, showcases the Italian dwarf Giacomo Favorchi in a full-length portrait as he attends the Elector of Saxony. Favorchi is depicted standing confidently with one hand on his hip, dressed in ornate apparel that includes a collared shirt, breeches, and a richly textured coat. His beard is well-groomed and full, and he wears a colorful hat adorned with feathers. By his side, a small Danish dog named Raro, also dressed in a collar and collar, gazes up at its owner. The painting is a prime example of the Dutch Golden Age, a period of artistic and cultural flourishing in the Netherlands. It is also a reflection of the fashionable clothing and courtly customs of the time. The location of the painting is unknown, but it is currently housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The painting's rich colors and intricate details bring the subjects to life, transporting viewers back to the 17th century. The posture and expression of both Favorchi and Raro convey a sense of pride and companionship, making this a truly unique and captivating work of art.
