About the piece
Painted in 1826 by Antonín Machek, this portrait depicts the singer Alois Jelen in his role as Max from Weber's opera Der Freischütz. The work is a masterclass in texture, from the airy white plumes of the hat to the delicate ruff and the sheen of the green and yellow costume. The subject’s engaging expression and the rich, dark background provide a classic 'Old World' presence suitable for sophisticated spaces.
