Rijksbarones von Friesheim - Charles Howard Hodges","description":"\u003cp\u003eA refined pastel portrait of Baroness von Friesheim by Charles Howard Hodges, capturing the elegant fashion and portraiture style of the early nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharles Howard Hodges, an English portraitist who spent much of his career in the Netherlands, produced this delicate pastel portrait of Quirina Catharina, Baroness von Friesheim. The work captures the sitter in a style typical of the early nineteenth century, reflecting the fashion and social standing of the European aristocracy during the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subject is depicted in a soft, oval format, a common choice for intimate portraiture of the era. She wears a white lace cap adorned with a plume, framing her face with ringlets that fall to her shoulders. Her attire includes a high-waisted gown in a pale blue hue, complemented by a darker shawl draped over her shoulders. The lace collar at her neck adds a layer of texture, rendered with the precision characteristic of Hodges's technical approach to pastel media.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHodges was known for his ability to capture the likeness of his subjects with a restrained, observant eye. In this portrait, the lighting is gentle, creating soft transitions across the facial features and the folds of the fabric. The background remains neutral, ensuring the focus stays entirely on the sitter. This piece provides a clear view into the portraiture traditions of the time, where the emphasis was placed on the individual's character and the quality of their garments. The use of pastel allows for a subtle blending of tones, which contributes to the overall sense of refinement in the image. This print reproduces the original work, maintaining the soft, powdery quality of the pastel medium and the specific colour palette chosen by the artist.\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=\"\/products\/the-kuli-kuta-dance-niamey-alexandre-jacovleff\" 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;\"\u003eThe Kuli-Kuta Dance, Niamey - Alexandre Jacovleff — Alexandre Jacovleff\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-adam-von-bartsch-johann-friedrich-leybold\" 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;\"\u003ePortrait of Adam von Bartsch - Johann Friedrich Leybold — Johann Friedrich Leybold\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Charles Howard Hodges","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473829695823,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473866002767,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473866035535,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473866068303,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473866101071,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473866133839,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473866166607,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473866199375,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473866232143,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473866264911,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473866297679,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473866330447,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Quirina-Catharina-des-H.R_Poster_CompositorV1_1786321649055.jpg?v=1786688883","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/quirina-catharina-des-h-r-rijksbarones-von-friesheim-charles-howard-hodges","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
