Portret van Jacques Dumont le Romain 1734 - 1782

This is a portrait etching of Jacques Dumont le Romain by Jean Jacques Flipart, created between 1734 and 1782. It shows the artist seated, dressed in a robe, and holding a palette and brushes. The text below the image tells us he was a "painter to the King" and a "chancellor" of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. The etching is a classic example of French Rococo portraiture and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. This artwork is a valuable historical document about an important figure in French art.
