"Portrait of Jacques-François Desmaisons(1782)", Jacques-Louis David

About the Artwork

“Portrait of Jacques-François Desmaisons” by Jacques-Louis David, painted in 1782, is a captivating glimpse into the world of art, architecture, and personal connection. In this exquisite portrait, Desmaisons, an architect and uncle to David, sits at a table surrounded by the tools of his trade: architectural drawings, a ruler, a compass, and books on architecture. The spine of one of the books bears the name of Andrea Palladio, a renowned Italian architect whose work inspired Desmaisons. David’s brushwork captures both Desmaisons’s professional demeanor and the warmth of their relationship. The scene feels intimate, as if we’ve interrupted Desmaisons mid-work, pen poised, glancing up at the viewer.
