EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Portrait of the artist, 1894" captures the essence of Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin's self-portrait. Created in the late 19th century, this piece showcases Desboutin as a distinguished French gentleman with his signature beard and direct gaze. Dressed in traditional clothing that reflects the fashion of the time, he exudes an air of concern and contemplation. The artist's choice to depict himself looking directly at the camera creates an intimate connection between him and the viewer. With a hat adorning his head, Desboutin presents himself as a man deeply rooted in his country's heritage art. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this lithotint print is a testament to Desboutin's skillful printing technique. The intricate details captured through lithography bring depth and texture to this portrait. As we observe this image today, we are transported back to a bygone era when men like Baron de Rochefort were seen as pillars of society. This artwork serves not only as a representation of one person but also encapsulates an entire century's worth of history and culture. Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin has left behind a legacy through his artistic expression, allowing us to appreciate both his talent and glimpse into life during France's nineteenth century.
