L.H. Roos ? 1790 - 1844

This miniature portrait, "L.H. Roos", was created by German artist Heinrich Jacob Aldenrath in the late 18th or early 19th century. The portrait depicts a young man, L.H. Roos, in a dark jacket and white cravat, with his hair styled in a fashionable manner. Aldenrath’s small-scale artwork displays meticulous detail and a focus on realistic representation, characteristic of portrait miniatures popular during this period. The portrait, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the attire and style of a gentleman in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
