Officer Portrait Manner Of Thomas Lawrence
A fine oil portrait of a military officer "MANNER OF" artist Sir Thomas Lawrence (1769-1825) wearing his British Army bright red coat jacket,having a buff coloured lining with gold threaded epaulettes on his shoulders,depicted gazing confidently into the artists eyes,with a faint smokey mist seen in the background.
The officers face is well painted and clearly shows afew days of facial hair stubble growth.with a mole on his right cheek.
The portrait has been extremely well painted and has captured the true atmosphere of a soldier who is proud and well groomed.
We consider the portrait to be of a Lieutenant or
Lieutenant General in rank based on the gold braided shoulder epaulettes.
ABOUT THE ARTIST (Sir Thomas Lawrence)
Born 13 April 1769
Bristol
Died 7 January 1830 (aged 60) London
Nationality English
Field Painting
Movement Romanticism
Sir Thomas Lawrence PRA FRS (13 April 1769 – 7 January 1830) was a leading English portrait painter and president of the Royal Academy.
Lawrence was a child prodigy. He was born in Bristol and began drawing in Devizes, where his father was an innkeeper.
At the age of ten, having moved to Bath, he was supporting his family with his pastel portraits.
At eighteen he went to London and soon established his reputation as a portrait painter in oils, receiving his first royal commission, a portrait of Queen Charlotte, in 1790.
He stayed at the top of his profession until his death, aged 60, in 1830.
Self-taught, he was a brilliant draughtsman and known for his gift of capturing a likeness, as well as his virtuoso handling of paint.
He became an associate of the Royal Academy in 1791, a full member in 1794, and president in 1820.
In 1810 he acquired the generous patronage of the Prince Regent, was sent abroad to paint portraits of allied leaders for the Waterloo chamber at Windsor Castle, and is particularly remembered as the Romantic portraitist of the Regency.
Lawrence's love affairs were not happy (his tortuous relationships with Sally and Maria Siddons became the subject of several books) and, in spite of his success, he spent most of life deep in debt.
He never married. At his death, Lawrence was the most fashionable portrait painter in Europe. His reputation waned during Victorian times, but has been partially restored in more recent ones.
FRAME
The frame is an original carved giltwood example,
still retaining the gold leafed finish,with some older minor slight losses over painted,but still looking respectable
MEASUREMENTS
HEIGHT 40 Inches Inc Frame
WIDTH 35 Inches Inc Frame
CONDITION
The portrait is in very good condition and has in past years been carefully cleaned,and still retains the original painted surfaces.
There are no repairs or crackleture evident.
The true radient colours of the red coat and warm glow in the officers face,are seen at best when there is a good bright picture light on the subject.
DATE
We estimate the date between C1790--1825.
