EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Per Cyrillus Rettig (c1830s)" by Carl Peter Lehmann, showcases the chubby, rosy-cheeked figure of Per Cyrillus Rettig, a prominent businessman and founder of Rettig & Co in Gavle, Sweden. Dressed in a formal black coat and dress, Per gazes directly at the viewer with a confident and determined expression. The oil painting, created in the 19th century, captures the historical significance of this man and his occupation as a tobacco seller. Per's complexion is warm and healthy, reflecting his prosperity and success in business. The concept of this portrait is not only a representation of a man in his profession but also a snapshot of the fashion trends during the 1830s. The monochromatic color scheme of black adds a sense of elegance and sophistication to the painting. This portrait is now a cherished piece of heritage art, housed in the Gavleborg County Museum in Sweden, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of this region.
