Jean-Etienne Liotard

Jean-Etienne Liotard

William Hauptman
4/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Renowned during the 18th century for his exquisite portraits and pastels, not to mention his outlandish Orientalist outfits, Jean-Etienne Liotard painted some of the most significant rulers and aristocrats in Europe, including the entire British royal family. A peripatetic artist, Liotard was born in Geneva and studied in Paris before traveling to Italy and then on to Constantinople. While there he painted local residents as well as British expatriates, and adopted the eccentric style of dress that, when he later visited London, saw him become known as “The Turk.” This volume illuminates the career of this unique but now little-known artist, showcasing his extraordinary works, including portraits, drawings, and enamels.
