About this work

You see a small grid of 16 portraits in the painting Joseph Barn. The portraits are arranged in a 4x4 grid, which is an interesting way to show multiple people at once. This format suggests the artist wanted to show a group of people, maybe a family or friends, together in one piece. Check out the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de, to see more of his portrait collections.
