Joannes Patriarchi (fl. 1790s) Portrait of a gentleman, rare miniature

  
A very rare portrait miniature by Italian artist Joannes (Giovanni) Patriarchi who worked in 1790s. Schidlof does not offer any biographical information about this artist and mentions only two of Patriarchi's known miniatures painted in ca 1790. However, other (Web; see our additional image) sources inform that the artist "Giovanni Patriarchi Romano" i. Had won the 2nd prize for a painting shown at the 1778 exhibition in "Reale Accademia del Disegno" in Florence.

Benezit, on the other hand, names Patriarchi an "Austrian artist" - possibly as a result of the artist's working engagement in Austria perhaps at the Court of Vienna? For his other work in our possession, see our web #42982.
