Johann Ölhan

Johann Ölhan painted small, crisp portraits of men with powdered wigs and dark coats in a style that feels just after the Baroque but before the crisp edges of Neoclassicism. His brush captured two living subjects—Portretul lui Joseph Drauth and Portretul lui Joseph Gottlieb Seuler von Seulen—with careful attention to lace collars and the tilt of a chin. If these stiff, formal faces feel like frozen moments from the late 1700s, that’s because they are. Tap Portretul lui Joseph Gottlieb Seuler von Seulen to see the lace and the light caught in every thread.
