Painting Description
"Master Charles William Lambton" is an oil painting by the renowned English portrait artist Sir Thomas Lawrence. Created in 1825, this artwork is also known as "The Red Boy," due to the vibrant red costume worn by the young subject. The painting is a portrait of Charles William Lambton, who was the son of John Lambton, 1st Earl of Durham, and an heir to the Lambton estates in County Durham.
The portrait is celebrated for its exquisite depiction of youthful innocence and aristocratic elegance, capturing the tender age of the subject, who was around six years old at the time. Lawrence's masterful use of color and light, as well as his ability to render fabrics and textures, is evident in the lush red suit contrasted with the soft landscape in the background. The pose of Charles Lambton, leaning thoughtfully against a stone plinth with a landscape vista behind him, has been noted for its naturalism and grace, a departure from the more formal and stiff poses often found in portraiture of the era.
Sir Thomas Lawrence was the leading English portrait painter of his time and served as the President of the Royal Academy. His ability to capture the personality and essence of his sitters made him a favorite among the aristocracy. "Master Charles William Lambton" is considered one of Lawrence's finest works and is a prime example of his skill in capturing the character and social status of his subjects.
The painting gained widespread acclaim and was engraved by Samuel Cousins, which contributed to its fame. It has since become an iconic image of Regency-era portraiture. "Master Charles William Lambton" is held in a private collection, and its enduring appeal lies in its combination of technical brilliance, emotional depth, and the poignant story of its young subject, who tragically died at the age of thirteen. The work remains a significant example of British portraiture and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic qualities and historical significance.
