About the piece
Painted in 1802 by Carl Frederik von Breda, this oil portrait captures Jean Martin de Ron. The youth's thoughtful gaze and soft, curly hair are set against a backdrop of dark, swirling clouds, while the bright yellow of his waistcoat and the rich teal of his sash provide a sophisticated color contrast that remains timeless.
