"Portrait Of The Daughter Of Anton Raphael Mengs - 19th-century Replica"
This portrait depicts Ana María, the daughter of the renowned German painter Anton Raphael Mengs (1728-1779), a leading figure in the neoclassical movement in painting. This 19th-century replica beautifully captures the delicacy and precision typical of Mengs’ work, who emerged as the foremost leader of neoclassicism, a style that replaced rococo as the dominant art form in Europe.
The painting is set in a modern frame, with dimensions outside the frame measuring 38x29.5 cm. Anton Raphael Mengs, born in Bohemia, spent much of his life in Rome, where his influence on European art was significant, not only as a painter but also as an art theorist.
