Weisbrod, 1800s, Etching

Chairish

$257

Q6, an original 18th-century etching, dated and signed, depicts a country festival with a drunkard in the foreground. The figures are depicted with features distorted by intoxication, in keeping with a typically 18th-century portraiture style. The lower section bears the date 1771 and the artist's signature. It is Carl Wilhelm Weisbrod, and the inscription "du Cabinet de M. le Duc de Choiseul" indicates that the artist copied from an original in the gallery of the French military and politician of the time, whose collection of paintings was made available to many artists, who made copies. The print is well preserved and housed in an elegant antique gold frame, which lends it the dignity of its past. The painting measures 34 x 38 cm, while the image itself measures 15 x 17 cm.
