The subject stands in a relaxed, leaning posture, resting one hand upon a stone ledge while the other grips the hilt of a long sword. His attire, featuring a plumed beret, a ruffled collar, and a heavy cloak, reflects the period's fascination with historical costume and theatricality. The artist employs fine, cross-hatched lines to define the shadows behind the figure, creating a sense of depth and volume within the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOllivier, a French painter and engraver, was active during the mid-eighteenth century. His work often reflects the stylistic tendencies of the Rococo period, favouring elegance and a certain decorative quality in his draughtsmanship. The figure's pose is informal yet poised, suggesting a character study rather than a formal portrait. The play of light and shadow across the fabric of the cloak and the texture of the stone wall demonstrates the technical precision typical of eighteenth-century printmaking. This piece offers a glimpse into the artistic conventions of the era, where historical themes were frequently revisited with a focus on costume and characterisation. The print remains a fine example of the period's interest in costume studies, rendered with a light, fluid touch that characterises Ollivier's approach to the etching medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/jong-meisje-young-girl-michel-barthelemy-ollivier\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eJong meisje (Young Girl) - Michel Barthélémy Ollivier by Michel-Barthélémy Ollivier\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/man-with-a-feathered-beret-alessandro-longhi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMan with a Feathered Beret by Alessandro Longhi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Michel Barthélémy Ollivier","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58709019394383,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709019459919,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709019558223,"sku":null,"price":290.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58709019590991,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709019656527,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Edelman-met-degen-en-baret_Poster_CompositorV1_1788818350768-q80.jpg?v=1792763036","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/en-nz\/products\/edelman-met-degen-en-baret-michel-barthelemy-ollivier","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
