Painting Description
"Portrait of Lettice Morison, Viscountess Falkland (1610-1646), Wife of Lucius Cary, 2nd Viscount Falkland, half-length" is a 17th-century painting by the Dutch-born English portraitist Cornelius Johnson (also known as Cornelius Janssen van Ceulen). This artwork captures Lettice Morison, who was the wife of Lucius Cary, the 2nd Viscount Falkland, a notable figure in English history and a prominent intellectual during the years leading up to the English Civil War. The portrait is executed in oil on canvas and is characteristic of Johnson's style, which is known for its delicate handling of features and attention to the sartorial details of his sitters.
In the painting, Viscountess Falkland is depicted in a half-length pose, a common format for portraiture of the era, which emphasizes the sitter's facial expression and attire. The portrait likely served both as a personal memento and a display of social status. Johnson's work is distinguished by its refined elegance and the lifelike representation of his subjects, which is evident in this portrait of Lettice Morison. The painting is an important example of Johnson's contribution to British portraiture in the early 17th century and provides insight into the fashion and aesthetics of the English aristocracy during this period.
The portrait is not only a work of art but also a historical document, offering a glimpse into the life of a woman associated with a significant period in British history. Lettice Morison's husband, Lucius Cary, was a noted royalist and a member of the "Great Tew Circle," a group of intellectuals and literary figures. The painting, therefore, holds value for both art historians and scholars of English history, reflecting the intersection of art, politics, and society in the early modern period.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, the current location or ownership of the "Portrait of Lettice Morison, Viscountess Falkland" by Cornelius Johnson is not specified. For those interested in viewing the work, it would be advisable to consult art historical resources or museum collections that specialize in British portraiture of the 17th century.
