Painting Description
"Portrait Of A Lady Head And Shoulders, Signed Charcoal And Chalk, Dated 1864, 64x50cm" is a distinguished work by the British artist Samuel Laurence. Samuel Laurence (1812-1884) was a notable portrait artist of the 19th century, renowned for his skill in capturing the essence and character of his subjects through his adept use of charcoal and chalk. This particular piece, created in 1864, exemplifies Laurence's mastery in portraiture, showcasing his ability to render delicate details and subtle expressions with precision and sensitivity.
The portrait measures 64 by 50 centimeters and is executed in charcoal and chalk, mediums that Laurence frequently employed to achieve a refined and nuanced depiction of his sitters. The work is signed by the artist, adding to its authenticity and historical value. The date inscribed on the piece situates it within a productive period of Laurence's career, during which he was highly sought after for his portraits of prominent figures in Victorian society.
Laurence's technique in this portrait is characterized by his meticulous attention to the interplay of light and shadow, which brings a three-dimensional quality to the subject's face and shoulders. The use of charcoal allows for deep, rich blacks and a range of grays, while the chalk highlights add a luminous quality to the skin tones and fabric textures. This combination of media results in a striking contrast that enhances the realism and immediacy of the portrait.
The identity of the lady depicted in the portrait remains unknown, but her poised and serene expression suggests a person of dignity and refinement. Laurence's ability to convey the inner life of his subjects through their outward appearance is evident in this work, making it a compelling example of his portraiture.
Overall, "Portrait Of A Lady Head And Shoulders, Signed Charcoal And Chalk, Dated 1864, 64x50cm" stands as a testament to Samuel Laurence's artistic prowess and his contribution to the field of portrait art in the 19th century.
