Painting Description
"The Duchess of Sutherland in her Coronation Robes 1839" is a portrait painting by the British artist Charles Robert Leslie. Completed in 1839, the work depicts Harriet Howard, the Duchess of Sutherland, in the opulent attire she wore for the coronation of Queen Victoria on June 28, 1838. As Mistress of the Robes to Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1861, the Duchess played a prominent role in the royal court, and her position is reflected in the grandeur of her coronation robes.
Leslie, known for his genre scenes and literary paintings, was also a respected portraitist, and his portrayal of the Duchess is notable for its attention to the textures and details of her ceremonial garments. The painting captures the richness of the fabrics, the intricate lace, and the gleaming jewels, conveying the pomp and circumstance of the British monarchy's traditions.
The artwork serves not only as a representation of an individual but also as a historical document, providing insight into the fashion and ceremonial dress of the British aristocracy during the early Victorian era. The portrait of the Duchess of Sutherland in her coronation robes is a testament to Leslie's skill in rendering fabric and his ability to capture the dignity and elegance of his sitters.
Held in a private collection for many years, the painting's current whereabouts are not widely publicized, and it has been exhibited only occasionally. Despite this, the work remains an important piece within Leslie's oeuvre and a valuable visual record of a significant moment in British history.
