EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Auguste Vacquerie, a distinguished and mature man of the nineteenth century. The artist, Victor Hugo, attributed this piece to his son Charles Hugo. The image captures Vacquerie in a close-up quarter length shot, dressed in formal attire with a suit and neckwear. His well-groomed mustache adds to his refined appearance as he gazes away from the viewer with an air of aversion. The artwork is created using various media including salt and albumen print, pen, brush, black and brown ink, watercolor, pencil, red and black crayon on paper. It is part of an album containing photographs and sketches by both Charles and Victor Hugo. This particular portrait measures 14.3 x 21.5cm but is smaller compared to other pieces within the collection. The background features a black crayon drawing mounted on paper which further enhances the profile of Auguste Vacquerie against its contrasting color palette. The composition exudes elegance as it highlights every detail of his clothing - from the jacket to the fine neckwear. Auguste Vacquerie's dignified presence shines through this artwork; his maturity captured flawlessly by Victor or Charles Hugo's skilled hand. This piece serves as a testament to their talent as French artists during that era while also providing insight into the fashion trends and portraiture style popular at that time.
