René-Charles Dassy and His Brother Jean-Baptiste-Claude-Amédé Dassy, 1850. Creator: Hippolyte Jean Flandrin (French, 1809-1864) .

René-Charles Dassy and His Brother Jean-Baptiste-Claude-Amédé Dassy, 1850. This double portrait depicts two brothers dressed in the height of fashion for the 1850s, clearly asserting their social status. Jean-Baptiste (left, age 23) carries gloves and a walking stick. René-Charles (right, age 25) wears an embroidered black velvet suit in the exotic à la Grec mode inspired by the Greek war of independence (1821-32). Flandrin represents the figures in an academic style emphasizing line over colour, reflecting his training as a pupil of J. A. D. Ingres.
