Philip Alexius de László, a renowned Anglo-Hungarian painter, is celebrated for his portraits of prominent figures in the early 20th century. One of his notable works is the portrait of John Dewar, 2nd Baron Forteviot. John Dewar, born in 1885, was a significant figure in the British whisky industry and a member of the Dewar family, which founded the famous Dewar's whisky brand. He succeeded his father, John Alexander Dewar, 1st Baron Forteviot, in 1929, inheriting not only the title but also the responsibilities associated with the family's business and philanthropic endeavors.

The portrait of John 2nd Lord Forteviot by de László captures the essence of the man who played a pivotal role in the expansion and success of the Dewar's brand during a transformative period in the industry. De László's skill in portraiture is evident in his ability to convey the character and stature of his subjects, and this painting is no exception. The portrait is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, the lifelike representation of Lord Forteviot, and the subtle yet powerful use of color and light, which are hallmarks of de László's style.

De László's work is often compared to that of John Singer Sargent, another master portraitist of the era, and his portraits are highly valued for their artistic merit as well as their historical significance. The portrait of John 2nd Lord Forteviot is a testament to de László's ability to capture the personality and presence of his subjects, making it a valuable piece in the study of early 20th-century portraiture and the history of the Dewar family.

This portrait not only serves as an important historical record but also as a fine example of de László's contribution to the art of portrait painting. It reflects the intersection of art, industry, and aristocracy, encapsulating a moment in time when the Dewar family was at the height of its influence.
