EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portrait of Augustinus Gerardus Hubertus van Rijckevorsel, a prominent figure from the 19th century. The painting depicts him seated in a three-quarter position, with his face turned towards the right (left for the viewer). His hands are gracefully folded in his lap, exuding an air of dignity and composure. Augustinus van Rijckevorsel is dressed impeccably in a dark jacket paired with gray pants, displaying his refined taste and status. However, upon closer inspection of an old restoration photo, it becomes apparent that changes were made to his high white collar. A loose piece has been added at the location of his neck, altering its original appearance. The background of this portrait remains understated yet elegant. It features a room wall with subtly marked wallpaper while being framed by a dark plinth and doorpost. These elements enhance the focus on Augustinus van Rijckevorsel's presence and personality. This remarkable artwork was created by Fernand Khnopff in 1888 using oil paint on panel. Measuring approximately 47.5 cm in height and 35.8 cm in width, it is currently housed at Academie de Belgique. Not only does this portrait offer us insight into the life and style of Augustinus Gerardus Hubertus van Rijckevorsel but also serves as a testament to Fernand Khnopff's exceptional talent as an artist.
