ENTOURAGE DE JACQUES-LOUIS DAVID (PARIS, 1748 - BRUXELLES, 1825), VERS 1820
Portrait of Dr. Jean-Pierre Beaude Oil on canvas 61 x 50 cm Dr. Beaude, then freshly graduated, is represented with the ardour of youth and the assurance of the young first ready to embark on a great career. The seemingly tousled hair is removed by the painter as powerfully as the background, while the model's direct gaze stops the eye of the beholder. This young doctor perfectly personifies the type of the romantic man of the early 1820s, both in his fashionable style and in his serene yet energetic pose. One could see the face of the Traveller contemplating a sea of clouds by Caspar David Friedrich (1818).
