re-vamping old character designs is so therapeutic… back on my #hnoc galahad fixation

This portrait, created by New Orleans artist François Fleischbein (born in Germany) in 1837, depicts a woman of color with a modest smile, wearing a golden headwrap, earrings, and an elaborate, tiered lace collar with a golden bow over a black coat. The portrait was originally painted with this ornate collar and bow, the artwork underwent an unfortunate alteration in 1988 when the collar and bow were removed. This change likely resulted from societal pressures at the time, as the intricate ornamentation, which emphasized the subject's individuality, may have been too elaborate or inappropriate for the period's portrayal of African American subjects. A few years ago, the collar and bow were carefully restored, returning the portrait to its original state. This restoration not only honored the artist’s vision but also acknowledged the subject’s cultural identity, reflecting a broader shift toward valuing historically accurate and culturally meaningful representations in art. Read more about the history of this wonderful piece in 2022 article on the HNOC site called "Identity Theft: A Painting Damaged, a Story Half-Told, and a Reckoning about Bias in Art Stewardship." François Jacques Fleischbein (1804–1868) was a German painter who lived and worked in New Orleans, Louisiana. He studied painting in Paris with Anne-Louis Girodet. In 1833, he immigrated to New Orleans. Although born Franz Joseph, Fleischbein decided to change his name to François in order to fit with his Creole clients. His paintings show a French academic style as well as a sweetness and charm common to 19th-century German painting.
