Painting Description
"Portrait of Robert Udny (1722-1802), half-length, in a gold-trimmed coat, holding a hat and gloves in his right hand, the Temple of the Sybil at Tivoli" is a distinguished painting by the Italian artist Pompeo Gerolamo Batoni. Created during the 18th century, this artwork exemplifies Batoni's mastery in portraiture, which earned him considerable fame during the Grand Tour period. The Grand Tour was a traditional trip around Europe undertaken by mainly upper-class European young men of means, and during this period, it was quite fashionable to commission portraits as a memento of the journey.
The subject of the portrait, Robert Udny, was a British art collector and patron who resided in Italy. He is depicted with an air of relaxed elegance, characteristic of Batoni's ability to blend the grandeur of the Baroque with the clarity and calm of Neoclassicism. Udny is shown half-length, dressed in a sumptuously gold-trimmed coat, which reflects his wealth and status. His right hand casually holds his hat and gloves, suggesting a moment of repose, possibly after a journey or during a sojourn in the Italian countryside.
In the background, Batoni includes a view of the Temple of the Sybil at Tivoli, a popular site near Rome that was often visited by travelers on the Grand Tour. The inclusion of this classical ruin not only situates Udny within the context of his travels but also aligns him with the values of classical antiquity, which were highly esteemed during the Enlightenment.
Pompeo Batoni's ability to infuse his portraits with cultural significance and personal character makes "Portrait of Robert Udny" a valuable example of 18th-century portraiture. The painting is not only a testament to Batoni's skill as an artist but also serves as a historical document, capturing the essence of an era where the grandeur of the past and the sophistication of the present were celebrated through the arts.
