EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait was painted by Per Hillestrom, also known as Pehr Hilleström or Per Hillestrom the Elder, in the year 1785. The Swedish artist, born in the eighteenth century, masterfully captured his likeness using oil on canvas. Hillestrom's skillful use of color and tonal values creates a striking contrast between the warm, rich hues of his clothing and the cool, muted tones of the background. In this portrait, Hillestrom is depicted seated, with a thoughtful expression on his face, suggesting deep introspection. He is dressed in the attire of a man of his time and occupation - a painter. The artist's palette and brushes are visible in the foreground, hinting at his profession and the creative process. The portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a talented artist from the past, providing a valuable connection to our artistic heritage. Hillestrom's self-portrait is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the essence of a person and transport us through time. This masterpiece is a must-have for any art lover's collection, adding depth and character to any room it graces.
