About the piece
Painted in 1838 by the Polish artist Jan Nepomucen Głowacki, this portrait depicts Antoni Paszyc with remarkable detail and character. The subject's silver-rimmed spectacles and thoughtful expression suggest a man of intellect, captured with the masterful tonal control characteristic of mid-19th-century European realism.
