About the piece

Painted in 1890, this striking portrait by Swedish master Anders Zorn captures Jacques Thiel with remarkable psychological depth. Zorn’s fluid, confident brushwork and rich, dark palette highlight the subject’s contemplative expression against a background of deep red drapery and leaded glass, exemplifying the elegance of late 19th-century portraiture.
