Painting Description
"John Beale Bordley" is a portrait by the prominent American artist Charles Willson Peale, painted circa 1770. The artwork is an oil on canvas and depicts John Beale Bordley (1727–1804), who was a notable Maryland planter, lawyer, and jurist of the period. Bordley was an influential figure in colonial Maryland, known for his contributions to agriculture and law, and was a contemporary of Peale. The portrait is a fine example of Peale's early work and reflects the neoclassical style that was prevalent in the late 18th century.
In the portrait, Bordley is typically shown in a dignified pose, dressed in the attire of a gentleman of his era, which often included a waistcoat, cravat, and a coat. The painting captures the subject's social status and intellectual demeanor, which were important elements in portraiture of the time. Peale's attention to detail and his ability to render the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of the human face are evident in this work.
