EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 18th century oil painting by Johan Henrik Scheffel, we see his younger brother Georg Matthias Scheffel (c. 1710s) gazing directly at the viewer with a serious expression. Georg wears a fashionable outfit typical of the time, consisting of a blue coat with brown details, a white shirt, and a sash around his waist. The coat, which is open to reveal the shirt, is adorned with intricate gold buttons and a red lining, adding an air of opulence to the portrait. Georg's wig is styled in the popular Pompadour fashion, with long curls cascading down the sides and a high, rounded top. Johan Henrik Scheffel expertly captures the essence of his brother's character in this painting. Georg's direct gaze and stern expression suggest a man of authority and importance. The background is simple, with a plain brown wall and a small table and chair in the foreground, drawing the focus to Georg and his attire. Georg Matthias Scheffel is believed to have worked as a secretary or government official in Pomerania, a region in northern Germany that was part of Sweden at the time. The painting is a testament to the fashionable clothing and political status of the time, providing a glimpse into the lives of the elite in the 18th century. This painting is now housed in the Gävleborg County Museum in Sweden, preserving the rich heritage of Swedish art and fashion from the past. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the painting continue to captivate viewers, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or historical archive.
