Description
English: The 18thcentury Swedish painter Adolf Ulrik Wertmüller had an international career. After working as a peripatetic artist in France, Italy, Spain and America, he finally settled down in Delaware in the USA. He painted classicist portraits – with distinct outlines and a keen eye for detail – of royalty, aristocrats and friends. During his first visit to the USA the President, George Washington, sat for him in Philadelphia in 1794. This is a replica of that first version, signed in 1795.
Svenska: Den svenske målaren Adolf Ulrik Wertmüller gjorde under 1700-talet en internationell karriär. Efter ett kringflackande konstnärsliv i Frankrike, Italien, Spanien och Amerika, bosatte han sig slutligen i Delaware i USA. I en klassicerande stil – med tydliga konturer och skarpa detaljer – avbildade han kungligheter, aristokrati och vänner. Under konstnärens första vistelse i USA satt president George Washington modell för honom i Philadelphia 1794. Det här är en replik av detta porträtt, signerat 1795.
