Claudius Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 Hello; I saw painting from a basement tavern in Savannah, GA. Can anyone identify this award? Can this gentleman be identified?

augustin1813 Posted June 14, 2024 Posted June 14, 2024 This is Anthony Hoynck van Papendrecht See https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Hoynck_van_Papendrecht_(1762-1837) 2
Claudius Posted June 19, 2024 Author Posted June 19, 2024 I would like to thank Saxcob and Augustin1813 who identified this gentleman and his award. if I ever return to this tavern, I will have to contact management/ownership. They can add a brass plaque below and return this gentleman from the unknown. or maybe I’ll email them. (It’s not ideal. I’m likely to get a “that’s nice. Thank you for letting us know” response.
GreyC Posted June 19, 2024 Posted June 19, 2024 As the original seems to be here: Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed De Collectie The one in the tavern is a copy? GreyC 1

GreyC I guess it must be a copy. I would feel better knowing it is a copy, considering where in the basement tavern I found it. 1
augustin1813 Posted June 20, 2024 Posted June 20, 2024 (edited) At this time, it was customary to make several copies of the same portrait. I have in my collection a portrait of general Beaumont d'Autichamp which I know exists in ay least two other copies! Edited June 20, 2024 by augustin1813

GreyC Posted June 20, 2024 Posted June 20, 2024 Thank you. Compared to the one in the museum the tavern copy is a rather crude one, especially w regard to the execution of the face. GreyC
