The "Portrait of Sir Henry Cholmley of Newton Grange (1609-1666), Bust-length, In A Red Mantle" is an exquisite example of 17th-century portraiture by the renowned artist Sir Peter Lely. Sir Peter Lely, born Pieter van der Faes in 1618, was a Dutch painter who became the leading portrait artist in England following the death of Anthony van Dyck. Lely's work is characterized by its elegant style, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to capture the personality and status of his sitters.

This particular portrait depicts Sir Henry Cholmley, a notable figure of his time, who lived from 1609 to 1666. Cholmley was a member of the English gentry, and his status is reflected in the opulent red mantle he wears in the painting. The choice of a red mantle is significant, as it symbolizes wealth, power, and high social standing. The bust-length format of the portrait focuses attention on Cholmley's facial features and expression, allowing viewers to engage directly with his likeness.

Lely's skillful use of light and shadow, combined with his delicate brushwork, brings a lifelike quality to the portrait. The artist's ability to render textures, such as the luxurious fabric of the mantle and the subtle play of light on Cholmley's skin, showcases his technical prowess. The background of the portrait is typically understated, ensuring that the viewer's focus remains on the subject.

This portrait not only serves as a visual record of Sir Henry Cholmley's appearance but also offers insight into the fashion and cultural values of the English aristocracy during the mid-17th century. As with many of Lely's works, this painting would have been commissioned to commemorate and celebrate the status of its subject, making it both a personal and historical artifact.

Sir Peter Lely's portraits are highly regarded for their elegance and sophistication, and the "Portrait of Sir Henry Cholmley of Newton Grange" is a testament to his enduring legacy in the realm of portrait painting.
