He was the Prebendary of Durham from 1809 to 1820. Sittings for this portrait are recorded in Romney’s notebook of 1781.

FAQs

19th-century British portraiture often featured relaxed, naturalistic poses, painterly brushwork, and classical composition. Works from this era frequently depicted aristocracy, children, and domestic pets set against subdued landscape or interior backgrounds.

Artists painted primarily with oil pigments on hand-stretched linen or cotton canvas. Frames were typically crafted from wood and plaster moulding, finished with genuine gold leaf gilding.

Authentic period works show age-appropriate craquelure across the paint surface, natural oxidisation on the canvas reverse, and hand-carved or molded gilded framing with age-related wear.

Traditional framed portraits act as focal points when hung above fireplaces, sideboards, or along gallery walls, creating an elegant contrast in contemporary or classic spaces.

Keep oil paintings away from direct sunlight, extreme temperature changes, and high humidity. Clean the surface gently using a dry, soft camel-hair brush, avoiding moisture or harsh chemicals.
