24 Days of La Fayette - Day 2

After beginning with one of my favourite portraits, let us continue with one of La Fayette’s favourite portraits of himself. This one:

Lafayette by Ary Scheffer, 1822-1823 via Wikipedia (12/02/2023)

It was a painted by the Dutch-French artist Ary Scheffer around 1822. The portrait was intended as a commemoration and present for La Fayette final visit to America - his Triumphant Tour in 1824/25. This was not the only work done by Scheffer for La Fayette, neither prior nor after the Tour.

The portrait accompanied him on this tour and La Fayette and Scheffer gifted it to the House of Representatives in 1824 when La Fayette was the first foreign visitor to address both the Senate and the House of Representatives in a joint meeting. To this day, it still hangs in the House Chamber (it was first displayed in the Capital Rotunda). The portrait was very well received by the people of the day. The newspapers wrote how close it resembled General La Fayette and no less than 27 state-banks featured the portrait on their currency. Many artists wanted to paint La Fayette during this momentous event but he neither had the time, nor the patience to sit for every single one of them. Instead, they copied this painting and made numerous engravings and prints. That is the reason why you see a number of copies and variations of this painting on the internet.

There is also an hilarious anecdote connected to this painting.

When Ary Scheffer was painting his portrait, someone asked the General how he was posed. He said:

“I am taking a walk - my hat and cane in my hand - like this.” “And the other hand?” “It is in my pocket, which is much better than having it in somebody else’s”

I’m sensitive to numbers 18 and 3.. especially, most especially my favorite sequence 1823. I love it so much that I even have my license plate custom made for this

So when it appears like this… don’t blame me!

What a coincidence that Yubin posted this video on his Douyin at 7:18 PM, and later on, he posted it on his Weibo 7:23 PM.

I want to ask him, is he clowning me? Really?

What a coincidence.. 1823
