The hand behind it

Jean-Étienne Liotard

Jean-Étienne Liotard is best known for his pastels: portraits with porcelain smooth faces, crisp fabrics and bright, fresh colour, painted with almost no visible strokes. He believed pastel was more beautiful than any other kind of painting. Born in Geneva, he travelled widely. From 1738 to 1742 he lived in Constantinople, and afterwards he kept wearing Turkish dress and a long beard, which earned him the nickname “the Turkish painter”. He then worked in Vienna for the imperial family, and later in Paris, London and the Netherlands, before returning to Geneva. His best known work, The Chocolate Girl, a young maid carrying a tray, is in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden. His work is also in the Rijksmuseum, the Louvre and the Getty Museum. A Woman in Turkish Dress shows his interest in Ottoman costume, and Empress Maria Theresa of Austria his work for the Vienna court.

Looking after it

Care and hanging

Keep it out of direct sun. Oil paint and varnish yellow and crack under prolonged UV. An interior wall away from a south-facing window is ideal.
Dust it, do not clean it. A dry, soft brush once or twice a year. No water, no sprays, no cleaning products.
Avoid damp and heat. Not above a radiator, not in a bathroom. Canvas expands and contracts with humidity.
Hang it at eye level. The centre of the painting about 145 cm (57 in) from the floor, on two fixings so it sits level.

Before you buy

Questions

How is the finish priced?

The price you see is the painting at the size you chose, in the finish you chose, and it updates as you change either. Rolled arrives in a protective tube, ready for local framing. Stretched arrives on wooden bars, ready to hang. Framed arrives in its frame, ready to hang. Stretched and framed go up to 60 × 90 cm (24 × 36 in); larger paintings travel rolled.

How long does it take?

Painting begins after you order and takes 3 to 4 weeks, including drying and the photo you approve. Delivery then takes 4 to 10 working days to most countries. More on delivery times.

Will it look exactly like the original?

It is painted by a person, so no. Brushwork varies between copies, which is the difference between a painting and a poster.

What if I do not like it?

Ninety days from delivery, full refund.

Can I get Self-Portrait II in a different size or shape?

Yes. Self-Portrait II is painted to the size you want, in the original’s proportions, or adapted to another shape on request. Stretched and framed go up to 60 x 90 cm (24 x 36 in).
