EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless elegance of a distinguished gentleman, Achille Deveria. The portrait, captured by either Achille or his son Théodule Deveria in 1854, exudes an air of sophistication and refinement. The subject's gaze is intense yet gentle, revealing a depth of character that only age and experience can bring. His neatly groomed beard and mustache frame a face marked with wisdom and grace. Every detail is meticulously preserved on this salted paper print, capturing the essence of the era. Measuring at 11.7 × 7.9 cm (4 5/8 × 3 1/8 in. ), this small but powerful image transports us back to nineteenth-century France, where style and poise were highly valued attributes. As we admire this portrait today, we cannot help but wonder about the life led by this enigmatic gentleman. What stories does he hold within him? What accomplishments or trials shaped his path? Though these questions may remain unanswered, one thing is certain: through this remarkable photograph, we are granted a glimpse into history—a fleeting moment frozen in time. The Liszt Collection has curated yet another gem from their vast archives with this exquisite portrayal of Achille Deveria. This piece serves as a testament to the enduring power of portraiture—capturing not just physical likeness but also encapsulating the spirit and essence of its subject for generations to come.
