Painting Description
"The Misses Rushout" is a notable miniature portrait by Andrew Plimer, an English artist renowned for his work in this genre during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The painting, created circa 1789-1790, depicts Anne and Harriet Rushout, the daughters of Sir John Rushout, 4th Baronet, a member of the British Parliament. The Rushout family was among the prominent patrons of the arts during this period, and the commissioning of this portrait is a testament to their status and the cultural practices of the time.
Andrew Plimer, born in 1763, was initially apprenticed to a clockmaker but left to join his brother Nathaniel in London, where they both developed their skills as artists. Plimer soon established himself as a gifted miniaturist, gaining recognition for his delicate and refined portraits, which were highly sought after by the aristocracy. "The Misses Rushout" is a prime example of Plimer's skill in capturing the elegance and grace of his subjects, set against a landscape backdrop that was somewhat unusual for miniature portraits, which typically featured plain or lightly sketched backgrounds.
The artwork is executed in watercolor on ivory, a common medium for miniatures of the era, which allowed for fine detail and a luminous quality that was well-suited to the intimate scale of the work. The portrait showcases the two young women in fashionable attire of the period, with attention to the textures of their clothing and the softness of their features, highlighting Plimer's ability to convey both the physical likeness and the genteel character of his sitters.
"The Misses Rushout" is not only a significant piece due to its artistic merit but also as a historical document, reflecting the social customs and sartorial trends of the British upper class at the end of the 18th century. The painting is held in a private collection, and its appearances in exhibitions and art historical literature have contributed to Andrew Plimer's enduring reputation as one of the foremost miniaturists of his time.
