EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a three-quarters-length portrait study of a man seated at his desk, surrounded by an air of elegance and sophistication. Created between 1740-1760, this artwork is rendered in black and white chalks, stumping, brown ink, graphite, and blue laid paper. The squared sheet measures approximately 12 5/16 x 10 1/16 inches (312 x 256 cm), offering a detailed glimpse into the artist's skillful execution. Believed to be part of the circle of Joseph van Aken, a renowned Flemish painter from Antwerp who was active in Britain during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Van Aken specialized in painting draperies and was highly regarded among leading portraitists such as Joseph Highmore, Thomas Hudson, and Allan Ramsay. In this particular piece, we see the sitter's face expertly painted with great attention to detail while relying on Van Aken's signature style to finish off the rest of the figure. What adds an endearing touch to this composition is the presence of a loyal dog faithfully sitting beside its master at his desk. With its impeccable craftsmanship and historical significance within British art history training under Young Van Aken himself makes this portrait study truly remarkable. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both technical mastery and artistic expression captured within one frame without mentioning any commercial use associated with it.
