Original Description
Alessandro Longhi’s Portrait of a Gentleman in a Red Coat and Florally Embroidered Waistcoat exudes an air of refined elegance and aristocratic confidence. Painted in the mid-18th century, this masterwork captures the Venetian Rococo style with its sumptuous detailing and luminous palette. The gentleman’s scarlet coat, richly embroidered waistcoat, and poised demeanor reflect the opulence of Venetian society during the period. Longhi, the son of famed painter Pietro Longhi, was renowned for his portraiture, blending realism with decorative flourish—qualities that make this painting a standout example of 18th-century Venetian portraiture. Its historical significance lies in its embodiment of the transition from Baroque grandeur to the lighter, more intimate Rococo sensibility, marking Longhi as a pivotal figure in the development of Italian portraiture.
For interior decor, this painting would elevate a classic or traditional space with its bold colors and intricate details. Position it above a Regency-style console or a Louis XVI desk to enhance its aristocratic charm. The rich reds and floral embroidery in the waistcoat offer opportunities for color coordination—pair with deep burgundy upholstery or muted gold accents for a cohesive look. Given its likely moderate size (typical of Longhi’s portraits), it would suit a study, library, or formal dining room, where its refined character can be appreciated up close. Avoid overly modern settings, as the painting thrives in environments that echo its historical grandeur. Dim, warm lighting will accentuate its textures, making the embroidery and facial expression appear even more lifelike.
