EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures King Oscar I of Sweden and Norway, painted by Karl Stefan Bennet in the 1830s. The King, born as Joseph Francois Bernadotte, dons a formal military uniform, complete with an epaulette-adorned jacket and a coat with black color, adding an air of authority and regality. The monarch's direct gaze and well-groomed facial hair, including a prominent mustache, further emphasize his strong and determined character. King Oscar I, a member of the House of Bernadotte, ruled both Sweden and Norway from 1844 until his death in 1859. This painting, which showcases the King in head and shoulders format, was likely created to commemorate his reign or to celebrate his heritage. The oil on canvas artwork, now housed in Gävleborg County Museum in Sweden, is an essential piece of historical art that provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 19th century. The King's military uniform, with its intricate details and black color, reflects the concept of power and tradition, making this portrait a timeless and captivating piece of history.
