Description

JOHANNES LINSE (1875-1930) PORTRAIT OF IUSUPOV

Johannes Linse (1875-1930) Portrait of Iusupov signed 'Joh Linse' (lower right) oil on canvas 80 x 48¼ in. (203.2 x 122.8 cm.) Provenance Anonymous sale, Galerie Gloggner, November 17, 2001, lot 88.

The current portrait was most likely painted during F. Iusupov's exile period in Paris. It is possible that it was painted in connection with one of the Russian costume balls that Felix helped to organize; the most famous of all being the ball at Albert Hall in London in 1920. Participants arrived dressed in the traditional costumes similar to the famous Costume Ball given at the Russian Court in February 1903, where guests were dressed in costumes from the times of Tsar Aleksei Mikhailovich. Here, dashing Felix Iusupov is dressed in the traditional 17th century costume similar to a costume he wore to one of the Russian balls (fig 1). The grand portrait presents a nostalgic vision of the glamorous lifestyle of one of Imperial Russia's most famous personalities.
