Portret van bisschop Jean-Baptiste Massillon 1820 - 1827

This portrait of Jean-Baptiste Massillon, a renowned French preacher, was created by Jean Pierre Sudre between 1820 and 1827. Sudre, born in 1783, captures Massillon in a formal pose, dressed in his bishop's robes and adorned with a cross. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a fine example of portraiture from the early 19th century and offers a glimpse into the life of a prominent religious figure. The print, measuring 476 mm in height and 318 mm in width, exhibits a detailed, realistic style, characteristic of Sudre's work.
