Painting Description
"Viscount and Viscountess Lee of Fareham" is a distinguished portrait painting by the renowned Hungarian painter Philip Alexius de László, created in 1928. This artwork captures Arthur Hamilton Lee, 1st Viscount Lee of Fareham, and his wife, Ruth Moore, 2nd Viscountess Lee of Fareham, in an evocative representation that highlights their social status and personal elegance. Arthur Lee was a British soldier, diplomat, and politician, notable for his philanthropy, including the donation of Chequers to the nation, serving as the country residence of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. His wife, Ruth, was equally prominent in social circles, contributing to their legacy through various charitable works.
Philip Alexius de László, born in 1869 in Budapest, was a prolific portrait artist known for his ability to capture the likeness and personality of his sitters, which included royals, aristocrats, and elites of the early 20th century. His style, characterized by its vivid realism and attention to detail, made him a sought-after portraitist among the high society in Europe and America.
The painting of the Viscount and Viscountess Lee of Fareham stands as a testament to de László's skill in portraying the nuances of his subjects' characters and their social standing. The composition, use of color, and the detailed rendering of the subjects' attire and expressions, all contribute to a portrait that is both a personal commemoration and a historical document, reflecting the societal norms and values of the time.
This artwork is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context, offering insights into the lives of one of Britain's notable couples of the early 20th century and the social dynamics of their era. The portrait remains a valuable piece in the study of Philip Alexius de László's work and the genre of portraiture, illustrating the intersection of art, history, and society.
