EDITORS COMMENTS
Anders Leonard Zorn's captivating etching, "King Oscar II (Second Plate)," dating back to 1898, showcases the elderly monarch, King Oscar II of Sweden and Norway, in a thoughtful and introspective moment on the deck of a naval vessel. The King, dressed in his full naval uniform, complete with a tall hat adorned with gold trim and a long, flowing beard, gazes off into the distance, seemingly lost in thought. The intricately detailed etching on ivory laid paper captures the rich colors and textures of the King's clothing, from the deep blue of his jacket to the gold accents on his hat and epaulets. The artistic movement of realism is evident in the meticulous attention to detail, as well as the raw emotion conveyed through the King's posture and expression. The etching's composition, with the King seated alone on the deck, adds to the sense of isolation and introspection. This striking portrait of King Oscar II is a testament to Zorn's mastery of the etching medium and his ability to capture the essence of his subject. It is a valuable addition to any art collection, particularly those focused on heritage art, Scandinavian art, or portraits. The etching can be found in many prestigious galleries and museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
