Attributed to Anton von Maron (Austrian 1733-1808) Portrait of a gentleman wearing a blue coat with gold trim Oil on canvas 80 x 63cm (31¼ x 24¾ in.) In a Kentian frame Anton Von Maron (1733-1808) was born in Austria but settled in Rome in 1755. He was a pupil and assistant of Anton Raphael Mengs whose sister he married in 1765. He had ambitions as a history painter, but worked mainly as a portraitist, in a style very similar to Pompeo Batoni (1708-1787). Like Batoni, he painted many wealthy British and other continental visitors to Rome like Johann Joachim Winckelmann the great German aesthete and archaeologist.
