"Portrait of Merchant Samuel Blumer" is a 19th-century oil painting by Danish artist Wenzel Ulrik Tornøe (1824–1879). Tornøe, known for his portraits and genre scenes, captured the likeness of Samuel Blumer, a merchant whose identity beyond his profession remains largely unrecorded in historical documents. The painting is executed in the academic style that was prevalent during the period, showcasing Tornøe's skill in rendering the fine details of his subject's visage and attire, as well as his ability to convey the social status and personality of the sitter.

The portrait is significant for its representation of the mercantile class in the 19th century, a period of considerable economic change and expansion in Europe. Through Tornøe's brushwork, viewers gain insight into the fashion and aesthetic preferences of the time, as well as the importance placed on individual portraiture as a means of asserting personal identity and social standing. The artwork serves as a valuable piece of cultural history, reflecting the economic and social dynamics of the era.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is believed to have been produced during the height of Tornøe's career, a time when he received numerous commissions from prominent figures in Danish society. The painting's current location or ownership status is not publicly known, and it has not been widely studied or exhibited, which may limit the available information about its provenance and historical context.

As an artist, Wenzel Ulrik Tornøe was a respected figure in Danish art circles, having studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and later becoming a member of the Academy Council. His works contribute to the understanding of Danish art in the 19th century and offer a glimpse into the era's portraiture conventions. Despite the scarcity of extensive records on "Portrait of Merchant Samuel Blumer," the painting remains an example of Tornøe's artistic legacy and the broader genre of portraiture in Danish art history.
