Painting Description
"Caricature of a Man Seen from Behind Wearing a Tricorn and a Longcoat" is a drawing by the renowned Italian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696–1770). Known for his grandiose paintings and frescoes that adorned the walls and ceilings of palaces and churches throughout Europe, Tiepolo also had a penchant for creating caricatures, a lesser-known aspect of his oeuvre that reveals his keen observation and wit.
This particular work is executed in pen and brown ink with wash over black chalk on paper, a medium that allowed Tiepolo to quickly capture the essence of his subject with fluidity and dynamism. The drawing depicts a man in profile, viewed from behind, with exaggerated features that are characteristic of caricature. The figure is adorned with a tricorn hat and a longcoat, elements that situate the subject within the 18th-century context and reflect the fashion of the time.
Tiepolo's caricatures often served as exercises in exploring human physiognomy and expression, and they exhibit a playful side of the artist's personality. These works were not intended for public display but rather for personal amusement or for a small circle of connoisseurs. "Caricature of a Man Seen from Behind Wearing a Tricorn and a Longcoat" showcases Tiepolo's ability to infuse humor and a sense of immediacy into his sketches, distinguishing them from his more formal and monumental commissions.
The drawing is part of a larger collection of Tiepolo's caricatures that have been studied for their insight into the artist's process and the social milieu of the time. While not as widely recognized as his frescoes and altarpieces, Tiepolo's caricatures are valued by art historians for their technical skill and the unique perspective they provide on 18th-century society and culture.
As with many works on paper from this period, the provenance and exhibition history of this specific caricature may be less well-documented than Tiepolo's larger works. However, it remains an important piece within the corpus of Tiepolo's art, offering a glimpse into the more intimate and personal side of one of the leading figures of the Italian Rococo.
