About the piece
Painted in the early 1820s, this work features the Italian Romantic master Francesco Hayez in a self-portrait alongside his circle of friends. The composition is characterized by its tight, intimate framing and the varied gazes of the sitters, rendered in a rich palette of deep navy and warm earth tones that exemplify the refined technique of 19th-century European portraiture.
